2008 Bmw M5 M5 on 2040-cars
Riverside, California, United States
ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: shaquitakoshiol@juno.com .
For sale is my 2008 e60 M5. General info below:
-Exterior: 9.5/10
-Interior: 10/10
-75000 miles
-5.0L V10 engine
-7 speed SMG III transmission
-Registration valid until January 2017
-No accident history. Carfax in hand.
I originally purchased the M5 knowing that the engine wasn't in the best of shape (ran rough, knocking, etc), so I
took it to Castro Motorsport, a reputable shop with a long track record (North Hollywood, CA). The issue was
initially identified as being VANOS-related, so we went ahead and replaced all four VANOS solenoids. Unfortunately,
this didn't fix everything, and we soon found out that bad rod bearings had taken a devastating toll on the engine
(as I had initially suspected). With few options remaining, I decided to go through with a complete engine rebuild.
In addition to machining both cylinder heads, the following parts were replaced (brand new OEM):
-Crankshaft
-Camshafts (on national back-order, imported from BMW Germany)
-Pistons & O-Rings
-Valves & Lifters
-Rod bearings
-VANOS assembly
-VANOS oil pump
-VANOS gearbox
-VANOS solenoids
-Coil packs
-Spark plugs
-Water pump
-Engine mounts
-All belts, pulleys, filters, etc
-All cooling hoses, fluids, etc
We also inspected the entire drive train while it was out. We refilled all fluids and replaced anything else that
looked sub-par, such as the clutch pressure plate, etc. Upon physical completion of the rebuild, the car was taken
to Gintani (Van Nuys, California) for tuning and final touches (currently in the process of scheduling a dyno
session). One more trip to Castro for some custom exhaust work, and the M5 was finally ready to go. I was given
specific break-in instructions, which I have just recently finished by reaching 2,000 miles on the new engine.
Though it pains me to do so, I'm selling the car because I need to free up some additional funds for a business
project. The rebuild comes with a 1 year/12k mile warranty from Castro Motorsport. Additionally, all of the
above-mentioned parts come with a 3-year warranty from Beverly Hills BMW. I have receipts for all parts and labor;
these will be given to the new owner.

BMW 3 Series set for mild facelift
Fri, 28 Mar 2014The latest BMW 3 Series is pretty new, right? Well it's been on the market for the better part of three years now. And on a typical six-year production cycle, that means it's halfway through its life. It only makes sense, then, that BMW should be preparing a little mid-life facelift, and that's just what we appear to be looking at in these latest spy shots.
The changes will likely be minimal when the revised 3 Series debuts sometime in the middle of next year, with the visual changes to the exterior centering around a new front bumper. New lighting front and rear may also be part of the package, and you can also expect some updates to the interior while those Bavarian engineers are at it. Take a closer look in the gallery of high-res spy shots above for an idea of what to expect.
BMW readying impressive track-focused M Power App
Thu, 06 Jun 2013There are a lot of questionable automotive apps that people put on their smartphones these days, but BMW has created what could be one of the most useful and integrated car apps ever. The new M Power App, which will be available this summer only for Apple iPhones, allows BMW owners a whole new way to record their performance on the street or on a track. During the launch of the recent BMW M6 Gran Coupe, BimmerPost was able to get a full demonstration of how this new app works.
Far more involved than the current M Power Meter, the M Power App records data from in-car sensors and acts as a telemetry tool to allow drivers to see how they did on a particular track. Aside from an overlay on a track map showing acceleration and braking applications as well as head-to-head comparisons, the app also shows a line graph of everything from brake and throttle inputs to g-force, fuel mileage and engine speed. A small visual on the screen also shows steering angle, and lap times and speeds can all be stored as well. The data can even be shared with others, whether for bragging rights or instruction purposes.
This app works on any newer BMW equipped with the BMW Apps option, but the phone must be tethered to the car and the data understandably cannot be viewed while driving. Scroll down for the video demonstration recorded recently at Austin's Circuit of the Americas.
