My advise when you want to buy a used performance car like the M5 and it has Landsail tyres or Hifly tyres or whatever cheap Chinese brand, just leave it immediately. These owners apparently cannot afford reasonable tyres. That says enough about the state of maintenance.
100%
lmao, absolutely true. i've bought my standard a3 8p from 2010, it has hifly tires which i'll change for the next season. absolutely shit maintenance by previous owner, had to replace almost everything on the car (engine was fine and still is), but atleast it's fully clean now xD
Glad to see your moving forward with the e60 m5 despite the scam and legal stuff That v10 noise will be worth it
It’s fbook marketplace lmao ur asking to get scammed
UNCLAP IT!🎉
Actually, I think that if you repair the things that the Seller claimed to have fixed, you may help your case, as you can better illustrate the extent to which they deceived you and the danger that deception put you in, in my opinion.
Plus, you have monetary loss by making repairs that weren't supposed to exist, as they told you the work had been done.
Also, these repairs were believed to be your jump off point, and your upgrades from there were initially the videos we got excited for.
So, if you document the heartwrenching discoveries in detail, you'll have visuals in court.
I think you'll be fine unclappin' the e60 M5, in my opinion.
Kudos!

Hey brother, I’m happy you decided to work on the M5. Your channel deserves it and you will ge more out of it instead of holding content back. If anything, those rod bearings and other parts can serve as evidence they were never replaced. Join the auto shop on their journey to destroy those scammers and use every part you replace as evidence. Even an oil analysis if possible. Keep up the good work.
I love the positivity especially in the situation you’re in. We’ve all been scammed one time or another in our lives, but you handle it well.
The e60 is becoming a great content providing chassis. I believe you’re the first creator to do so. Good work broski
Thank you! Definitely not a ton of E60 M5 content out there other than the goat, M359 Restorations
@@VehicleVirals YOU WATCHED PROJECT RALEIGH??
@@gunner.j right lol
Uncle rich just got one too. He has many projects tho
Project Raleigh was incredible. Zero to 60 have a beauty as well. I even think they're the only owner of their M5.
Man, you are going to really appreciate that car more knowing that you did all of the work!!!
Crazy how I’ve been watching you for 5 years. Your channel is the sole reason I bought my 335i
Thank you for all your hard work despite the set backs you are still moving forward we appreciate your hard work 👍
whenever vehiclevirals drop a video u know its gon be good, love the content man ❤
Nice choice I just did the shocks and struts but used the Bilstein B8’s with the h&r’s. They are shorter in height and literally meant for lowering springs. Car feels much better
I'm getting the same setup as you, as I'd heard that B4 & b6 shocks were for use with standard springs. I'm concerned that the ride may be too hard as the roads in the UK are crap. What's your experience been like?
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO GREASE THE BEARING BEFORE MOUNTING IT. 😂😂 WHAT A AMATEUR!
Hope everything works out! I know I want a E61 with the six speed or get one with the SMG and do the conversion (because i want it and content). So definitely following this series for updates. As always, keep your head up and continue the amazing work
Very happy to see all that improvements and pieces replacements. I also had made kind of replacements in some parts of my M5. Very good, congratulations.
I hate how little you post but love the content when you finally decide to post 😂🤦🏾♂️
LOVE THE VIDS BRO KEEP EM COMING PLEASE
Trying to work on the upload frequency 😂
Excellent video. Please keep the E60 content coming.
Loving the content. Also liking the positive outlook after being scammed on the purchase. Kudos.
I got my e60 m5 a couple of months ago. Look into the infinity designs CSL intake and plenum. Carbon fibre goodness it looks and sounds incredible! I've got one ordered getting fitted next week! 😀😀
Glad to see your moving forward with the M5
That trick he used to pop that rotor loose was to smooth! #smoothcrminal 🤣
Glad your getting stuff going on the m5!! Been busy with work so catching up on your vids...... liked the the way you formatted the repair parts of the vid......gotta snag another of your shirts pretty soon! Great work Christian 💯
Sounds great there at the end bro !! Can't wait for the next vid.
This man boutta get the CSL intake manifold for this beast! Cant wait to hear that sir! Big maintenance moves and upgrades. I cant wait to get out of debt to do all this to mine.
This car brought me to your channel. Good luck sir can’t wait to watch going forward
love the channel bro. keep striving forward 😎
I commend you! I KNOW your heart wasn't into it, but it looks like things are coming together. Thank you for this video. Keep pushing forward. I'm anxious to see me on this M5!
Great to see you doing ALL this to the car, is a lot of money, but in return you'll get a lot of car. Carbon Plenum incoming and exhaust, that M5 is going to sing. 🤘
stay positive man!
I am loving the build, e60 m5 is one of my top 3 best sounding cars ever, so happy you are giving it the love it deserves. The best sounding one I have heard in person had infinity design equal length headers and ITBS, a really throaty intake sound, wish you the best of luck with you legal action and looking forward to more videos :)
ua-cam.com/video/fr0Je6WbBls/v-deo.html sounded just like this
ua-cam.com/video/BI8VAvdKb9k/v-deo.html ITB intake sound here, just wanted to share
Always enjoying the Amazing Content 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
love this car & glad you keeping it for the content !
Keep it moving, bro. I like your style. 💪🏽🙌🏽✊🏽
Nice choice of Bilstein stuts and H&R springs combo... I have the same setup on my E60 M5.... It will be a little more firm than stock but you won't regret it!
Love this build keep going🙏
Love watching your content! 🙌🏼👍🏼
You're doing the right thing, taking legal action that's what's up!!!!
Great editing keep up the good work
happy you did get things sorted
Awesome!
Should be getting my engine back this week or next. Can't wait to get back on the road!!!❤
Dream car! Thank you for the content! I’m sure this won’t mess with the trial, as long as you keep all the old parts and the old bearings. The old bearings are a clear indicator that the previous owner lied and they were never changed and whatever else he said they did.
Who cares
Awesome work bro
I love watching you restore this car
I’m so excited for this series. I’m really glad you aren’t postponing this content
Getting that M5 back to a proper state is lovely to watch 👌🏼
It's always a good day when bro uploads a video😁😁😁💃🏿💃🏿
I love watching you guys .
Thanks for sharing!
getting scammed generates quality contents. I think you are coming out a winner.
Great content bro , I did same and much more to my M5 , I need to ask why does my rpm drops at idle when I rev it, it drops to 500 tpms and thr gains back to 750 rpm, what should I check , evap vents just changed , could be a vacume leak, or anything ?
Wondering why you didn’t go with the Bilstein B16 instead? I just put them on my e60 (non-M5) and they’re awesome!
Swap depot has to upload more i miss that guys knowledge. Teaches us so much without knowing it with his experience
Informative and entertaining 👍
Love your vids❤
I own a 335xi myself, love the car, but I would never own another BMW again. It is an absolute nightmare to work on, and most parts cannot simply be bought at an auto store. I commend you for this work sir, good luck!
Good luck with the lawsuit 👍💫
Im glad im satisfied watching this stuff on youtube vs buying and doing it myself.
Ali tapped the rotor twice and just flex walked away made my day😭
those bearing were cooked. most likely due to maintenance neglect (too long of an oil change interval) and contamination in the oil. wonder what the main bearings look like. get a scope cam and see what the piston tops look like (if they are all carboned up and nasty). might be a good idea to run some seafoam or some other decarbonization cleaner thru it.
Love the videos ❤❤❤
Don't forget the fuel injectors too Bro most likely it's on the original ones they need to be done!
e60 m5 on te37’s and I know you got a exhaust but full titanium exhaust with the v10👀
Thank you for not giving up on that M5
This makes me ponder how many scammers are actually out there that have "paperwork" for the car. People seldom verify it with the shops... and it would be an easy way to sell unwanted cars for a much higher price with little to no repercussions. Be careful out there folks.
Man this thing is gonna be such a beast
You should put up an expense bar. Reference for those looking for these cars and a ballpark of what things are gonna cost.
I just bought a 2014 RS5 and the first thing I had to address was 1100 for evap system they hid! Love the car though. M5 looks killer, sorry to see the issues.
Do you recommended to buy E60 M5 in U S facelift model ?. Thank you
besides valve cover gasket (due to oil on spark plugs) what else can be the cause of oil on spark plugs?
Inspiration💯 gotta do what you doing, doesn’t seem that hard😅
🎂
Any updates on when you crashed your black m5?
Nice video, man that ramp makes things so much easier... with regards to the control arms, i hope you tightened them with weight on them, they must be tightened in the ride height otherwise they will wear out very quickly!
We did tighten them with load
@@VehicleVirals Phew, i can sleep easy tonight then haha! Thanks for what you do brother, all very much appreciated.
Christian probably you’re like me we have love and hate feeling for the e60 M5 I know is a lemon but love the sound 😅
Karma’s a bitch, hope they rip that seller a new one. I have ZERO tolerance for people who do this crap. It’s just like you said, someone who may have bought this on their last dollar because it was their dream car would have been totally fucked over.
I think it would help your case honestly! You can show all the parts that were claimed to be fixed and bam! Evidence right there, can't fake it then! Excited to see the M5 in its true glory soon.
However, dealing with a similiar case, touching it means also, you could've put those bad parts in too. Legal doesn't like that I guess.
Remove the rear light tints and it’s near perfect 👌🏼
that thrust arm bushing was torqued without being at ride height thats why it failed like that... ask me how i know
I am a big-time subscriber I was wondering, could you do another E46 video pls
So would you suggest just doing the rod bearings when buying an E60 M5? While Im doing that what else would you suggest?
Depends on the M5 your purchase.
puts new rod bearings in.. Immediately says fuck the break in period just rev it to 8k XD love it
Minor setbacks for major comebacks! This M5 E60 build is going to be clean when it’s all said and done
It’s gonna be the same as all the other e60s lok
the bomb meme gets me every time
Sick car bro , head up 💪
Why no replacement of VANOS high pressure line? You will open the engine again pretty soon 😂
control arm bushings need to be torqued with the car on the ground or they will twist and prematurely ware. and the springs need to sit in the groove of the bottom of the strut.
Both done.
YOU HAVE TO follow suit against those scammers. Not doing so is the reason they continue to scam others.
If you won't do it for YOU... do it for US!!!
Ive heard that thinner oil protects the rod bearings more, what do you thin about this?
10w60 all the way.
can you turn them off completely while driving?
The sellers need to be brought to book to pay for their sleazy business practices. I hope you and the shop they forged documents from can nail them thoroughly.
Having owned this car for 10 years I can tell you the hawk break pads for the e60 m5 are terrible and will make a lot of dust and not last as long as oem. Also the hgk spark plugs will go out fairly quickly and you’ll be playing wack a mole replacing them one by one. Also oem ignition coils are pricey, but remember that aftermarket’s will stick and break on there. Have fun! 😊
Those bearings were pretty worn. Would have been nice to see the condition of the journals.
Yo appreciate the content. I wish I could talk to you about my E60M5 that I purchased RUNNING and driveable (limp mode) for under 3k.
Trynna to bring her back to life too.
Dang you make it look easy
What I do know is that a car lift actually helps . So I guess Mt channel needs a car lift and a shop
I would love for you to do content on an E61 M5. Maybe someday you can.
Remember the end goal make it happen car is a keeper once your done
If you sell it… the new owner will be very lucky that he bought from you
I had to do all this on jackstands for my e92. Knuckles were bleeedn lol.
😂
The rod bearings are surprising small.
How many miles did it have?
Just FYI the B6 struts are meant for stock ride height. You’ll want B8s if your using lowering springs.
B8's aren't offered for the M5
@@VehicleVirals in that case it’s understandable. Maybe in the future you could give product 49-234923 a try. It is essentially a B8 package with more adjustability. The B8 struts actually have a shorter piston shaft to accommodate for lowering as to still have adequate positioning and travel. The B6 are prone to bottoming out with lowering springs.
May as well go all in and supercharge it in the coming months 😂
God speed👊
How much do you pay for the car if you on by me asking you that
