Got an e60 530d 2005 with 76k miles and only 1 owner before me from new. Came with DPF delete and remap, fitted a hydrogen fuel additive system to it to reduce emissions/smoke, boost performance and improve fuel efficiency. Removed swirl flaps. Running around 300hp, had powerful cars before but this thing is ridiculous. Runs and drives like new, I have had the turbo refurbished (lady owner before me who had the DPF deleted so likely linked). Unbelievably comfy on long runs, astonishingly quick for a diesel and no, this isn't an advert, shes a keeper 😉😎 Offers over 4k 😁

I’ve had a 535D Touring LCI for 8 years had the DPF removed and swirl flaps a bigger intercooler with Eco Tune Remap and egr delete , have now done 260000 miles , I’ve had a few issues usual electrical stuff but major mechanicals are pretty much bullet proof with regular gearbox and engine oil changes , running about 380 bhp 565 ftlbs , the thing is still a flying machine , my golden rule is never thrash a cold engine it gives longevity rewards , I still love this car !

It's true, the same thing happened to me with the three Jaguars I owned. But I think that I put out negative energy in the world and it did come back at me. Luckily in my case with the Jaguars it was all common stuff like the air suspension on my Jaguar XJ, and with the BMW there's so many resources and forums. That being said I will never own another car that is not under warranty or leased. My current car a brand new Mini Cooper S while only 14000 miles has been trouble-free except for the airbag light but I do not want to own it out of warranty...

3.0 diesel in E60 s until 2005 is made of cast - iron. People mount it into Nissan Patrol. That engine is so durable. Later versions are made aluminium. 3.0 diesel form 2010 has timing chain back of the engine same like N47. I repair my E60 myself. I upload all movies to my channel.

if you have a good scanner you scan the instrument cluster it will tell you when you had oil changes and how much oil was changed, i was amazed to see it all logged in the car computer it gives you the milage and amount drained and re-filled it might even give you the date aswell it does it on my old mercs from 2001 so i imagine the beemer will do it too, i use just a basic carsoft scanner 100 quids worth. it really helps when there is no records

I'm just not sure about 5-15 year old BMWs that they are cars that are built to last. 6 cylinder engines might be desirable but the expensive mechanical repairs you hear are common these days and this generation of 5 series isn’t known for being particularly robust. Even the four banger petrols in the early 2010s 3 series are supposed to be ticking time bombs. Not to mention you're hated on the roads. What's to love!
@luccadukka
@luccadukka 3 года назад
I’ve got one and love it. Genuinely see nothing else to replace it with. They do have their issues but all cars do. I think the biggest misconception with these are because it’s a diesel, you can just run and run them. They are to a point but with 280bhp standard or close to 400hp with a remap they are practical sportswagons and need to be looked after. I’ve never seen 45mpg either. Probably not helped because I run bigger wheels with performance tyres (currently PS4’s) rather than those that are more economy focused. Anyway, you have a new subscriber and will be interested to see where you go with this.

I really enjoy watching your videos ! They've helped me alot making decisions. If I can just chip in on a comment you made whilst explaining how the twin turbo system works.. you said it was advanced and clever for 2004,. But Porsche introduced the world to the sequential twin turbo with the 959 in 1986. Skyline GTRs and Celica/supra and rx7s used them in the 90s perfecting the design with ceramic turbos and variable valve timing.

You have to look at the amazing performance of a 535d vs an M5 ,taking into account the massive difference in price.On a track the M5 would be all over it ,but on the road ( which is where 99% of us drive) a 535d will hold its own. If people are thinking about an M3/ M5 I would urge them to look at these .This will still be where you left it when you come back to it.Won’t get vandalised and you don’t have to worry about getting carjacked. Before anyone says anything I’ve run both ,M5 is a wonderful ,amazing super car, but like supermodels they can be high maintenance , not mechanically but socially and I experienced all of the above when I was running one as my daily driver. Got one of these ,still had a massive smile on my face, and I saved a pile of money 😀

I quite mechanically minded, so the car would be service and looked after by myself, but is there any inherited flaws this model and petrol engine could suffer from that could be a good reason to avoid it?

I think with safety on UK roads becoming a lottery (or my age||||), I should 'hang up my boots', both my beloved stress relief toys have to go (1996 Honda VFR 750 and the old 2000 1450 HD Roadking). A 535d Touring would seem to be the answer to bridge the gap and hopefully be fun . . . . Apologies for the waffle, but everyone should enjoy a big V-twin at least once. Won't lose your license, may require a hernia belt. . . . sound will ALWAYS make you smile.

It's hard to summarise cars like this if you haven't experienced this engine. We have an E92 330D, 2010. The auto/245bhp model. I would trust it to the tip of Italy, even though it has done 135K. It feels so solid and dependable if you keep up the service schedule which should include a good hiding/run-out every so often to clear out the EGR. The foot down smile response/MPG is a joke and is hard to convey to someone that drives a 'normal' car. Like you said, people that require space/reliability/economy always look elsewhere, usually the MPV market which seldom provides any value for money, let alone a smile or luxury/quality option along these lines.

do you know what to look out for when buying these? I'm looking at a higher mileage lci 330d at the moment. I've heard the timing chain can be an issue if not replaced?

I had one of these until 2010. Amazing car. Quite fancy another. Mine had “comfort” seats which are easily the best seats I’ve had on a car. They’re a pretty rare option I think, but worth seeking out.

So what are we saying Matt, that after you have titivated this car, when your thinking of selling it on you'll be asking what £4.5 grand or maybe £5 grand which considering the mileage sounds a pretty good offering price for an estate that could easily be converted and yes I am still looking for an estate worth making into a camper vehicle and what is on offer up in my neck of the woods doesn't please me.

I just bought a 530d that had a new engine 60k miles ago. The previous owner drove through a ford and the engine hydro locked. He loved the car that much he bought it back from the insurance and put a new engine in it. All of the preventative maintenance has been done and now I'm going to enjoy it for a few year, it's fast and comfortable 👌🔥
