BMW Down! E39 Seized Engine

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Well it sucks to say that I'm pretty sure my engine has seized on me yesterday. Had a friend of mine that's a BMW mechanic look at it and seems like head gasket is done and engine won't turn over at all which is an utter shame!

The funny thing is, brand new radiator was installed 2 weeks prior along with major service.

So... To sell as rolling body? Car has 149kms, Wof'd till 2016 and reg till end of this year. I personally would love to throw a new engine in her but that won't make sense as I'm leaving NZ in 2 months for the UK.

I'll be getting a detailed breakdown of the issue tomorrow.

Any idea how much a rolling body would fetch? She's a 2002 Silver E39 Motorsport 530i.

So gutted about this!!!
