Hmmm looks good. I wonder if the lowering springs are still on the car...

With regards to the wheels, it could be worth checking at the office to see that they haven't removed them and stashed them elsewhere. I know that they do that at PAP CHCH.

Agreed. I recently saw a complete but rough early 90's 3L G-wagon at PAP CHCH. Randomly sitting in an aisle, incorrectly listed as a 300e or something. Couldn't believe it ! It definitely looked saveable. It had disappeared within a week, no doubt a negotiated deal with a punter that saw the potential.

WOW - wish this was down at my local P-A-P! Those heated / cooled seats would be worth saving for sure SX2A9Climatized Full Leather Silverstone 2 Alcantara headlining is a worthwhile upgrade too, if in salvageable condition. I'd also be grabbing the M5 specific under-trays for engine and gearbox.

The holy grail.

Hi there - if you find that it's the module in the photo that is the problem, let me know - I might have one with the same part number. I am not sure if it would then need to be coded to your vehicle, however.

With that $2500 saving, I almost could've bought the $3000 blue manual 130i in CHCH that popped up on TM for half a day a few weeks back. 😢 apparently only needed the srs light sorted for a WOF.

+1 for wisemove. Have used them a couple of times now with good results.

Welcome to Bimmersport, and the roller coaster ride that is S85 ownership... ! nice M6 - a heck of a lot of car for the money. Promo Tuning are Wellington based, and can do tuning - https://www.promotuning.co.nz Pramod, the owner, cloned my S85 DME recently, and I can highly recommend his services. I believe he has owned an e60 M5 or two in the past.

Check out the rear bumper damage - caused by exhaust heat apparently 😂 https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-5274465619.htm

Here's my pick: https://blaupunkt.com/product/frankfurt-rcm-82-dab/ I am guessing that they are reasonably pricey in NZ, though

Hi Guys, just closing the loop on this in case someone is searching for one of these in the future... I ended up purchasing one from Chaos Calibrations in USA: https://www.chaoscalibrations.com/store/CHAOS-BMW-K-DCAN-INPA-OBD2-USB-Cable-p410327542 Timely delivery, reasonable price, and a nice quality unit. It is basically on a par with the Bimmergeeks cable in terms of updated chip / firmware etc it worked perfectly to flash the DME on my e60 M5 to Euro tune spec. cheers paul

Hi there - I'm in Christchurch, but can send these to you - price for both would be $40 incl freight ($45 if rural delivery) You can PM me for details if you like Regards Paul

Hi there I have a couple of new hoses that I purchased for my e36 328i M52 that I didn't end up using : 13541703865 and 13541703945 sorry, I'm not sure if these match up with any that you are after. cheers paul
