... there was also a V12 Tdi Toe-rag produced around that time - 1000Nm supposedly. I do recall one for sale in NZ a while back.

"Will upload video soon" Looking forward to that !

https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-5061297329.htm Looks like there's lots of matt black primer and an odd fitment / unpainted front bumper, but is described as having a "tidy exterior" maybe it's had a respray since photos taken? ... and what's going on with the exhaust??

Lots of high-end cars here in Vancouver, but it's the older ones that grab my attention...

E46 M3 on the bridge… OK, so not spotted in person, but was doing some google street view research for an upcoming trip to SF, and spotted this gem on it’s way onto the Golden Gate Bridge

+1 for Sparetto. I tried them recently for the first time for a swag of e60 parts and they were significantly cheaper than my usual go-tos of FCP Euro and ECS Tuning.

Hi ya - no problem. This one is now sold, but I know that pick-a-part has this type of part listed for $35. cheers paul

Hi there - I’ve got one listed on TM: https://www.trademe.co.nz/trade-me-motors/car-parts-accessories/bmw/electrics/auction-4874924513.htm cheers paul

Thanks for the recommendation - that particular vendor was out of stock. I ended up getting the one from SMG Society. Super fast delivery, and it is made in Germany - looks to be a nicely manufactured unit. comes with the essential seals and clips etc. Will fit it up this weekend…

Hi Guys, I need to replace the SMG hydraulic pump motor on my e60 M5 as the original one has been nicely toasted. Does anyone here have any recommendations / experience on what to replace it with? Eg: Genuine BMW (circa $1000 USD) from FCP Euro / ECS Tuning MLR Engineering pump from ECS Tuning – circa $530 USD “SMG Society” pump from Germany – 330 Euro The original pump is beyond repair. Any advice greatly appreciated! Cheers Paul

Just been looking at your e61 M5 thread and realised that I took a couple of photos of this car back in Feb 2021 in Christchurch. Prior to your ownership, I think… Epic wagon! Great colour!

Many thanks for the links - very helpful! cheers Paul

Hi ya Wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to find some wiring diagrams for e60 / e61 M5 or M6, particularly the DME / ECU and SMG computer wiring diagrams / pinout info. I’ve had a pretty good look on the internet, but nothing there , at least in public domain. I'm wondering if a 24-hour subscription to BMW-TIS might be an option…? Any guidance would be appreciated. Feel free to PM a dodgy download link ! cheers Paul

Yes, that should do the trick. Thanks for the heads-up. I’ve now purchased this kit, and it is slowly making its way to me from the US of A. My preference was to “buy local”, but I fully appreciated the unicorn nature of this request! cheers everyone Paul
