E39 F/L 530i

Recommended Posts

Picked this pile of turds up for next to nothing, NZ New Facelift so has the angel eye headlamps. I wanted the CD changer out of it, so it came with a free car virtually..

Known faults:

  1. Gearbox won't select reverse and appears to be in limp mode - i.e won't change gears
  2. Running on 5 cylinders - possible coil
  3. Dash has several lights showing
  4. Requires crank angle sensor also
  5. Speedo doesn't work

Is this car worth saving or is it off to scrap? Battery has been replaced and apparently some of these faults arose afterwards..

One of those stunning NZ new examples! They're always looked after, totally mint :lol:

You might be up for an ABS module, too.

Lol I was just thinking earlier today that it's been ages since you posted.

Give it a proper scan, some of the problems might just be sensor related. Looks tidy enough, it ought to fetch over 4k once it's good
