Brain: Can't imagine this cheap rubber part will be that expensive from BMW... BMW: Hold my beer.

"You can reuse your old, worn out, rubber but I decided for a new one, because it's the right thing to do. Sometimes you want new, proper, rubber in here. I'm gonna slide this bad boy on, and then we can jump underneath, hook everything up and see how this thing feels like" - PT, 2021

One of the best builds anyone has made, kudos to you guys for making this happen, lots of effort and patience. Though, the end result is always worth it!

@nowrasbaya4332 3 года назад

Thank you for putting the Style 65 wheels back on! The spacers and tires setup is the cherry on top!

@jamest5149 3 года назад

Yes... lemon clips or spring hose clips are much better than jubilee/worm clips. They don’t fail and they exert an even sealing pressure all around, also the can expand and contract when hot and cold with out damaging the hose or stretching and then leaking... much better for slip on fuel, coolant and oil hoses... also for the manufacturer they are cheaper than jubilee hose clips. Qualified automotive engineer 👍

@stepankyjovsky4180 3 года назад

This comment! Oetiker/cobra clamps are the way to go. Try to avoid worm clamps whenever possible. Uneven sealing pressure => leaks => overtightening => damage. If you use them and they inevitably leak you can try using two of them and orienting the screws/worms opposite each other.

@Sf_Mason 3 года назад

You may need to get INPA and run the ABS bleed sequence to resolve it, there's possibly air in the ABS module, which the only way to bleed it if it's got air in. It's not the case of you incorrectly bleeding it, it's a case the DSC / ABS Module needing a proper bleed.

@gekkethai 3 года назад

While the throwing stars are absolutely awesome, I think the original wheels look much better on the wagon. The grill was also the right move!

@zacharycastinado5204 3 года назад

I’ve watched this entire project and being a BMW tech that owns and E39 is such a pleasure to watch! Thanks guys!

@PowerslideSWE 3 года назад

All M5's, facelift or not have all chrome grills. Love the wagon, looks absolutely spot on with the 65's on there.

@p-townshankzilla2654 3 года назад

I always liked the OEM wheels until I seen your throwing stars. Some of the best looking wheels ever

@glengrandy2378 3 года назад

The original grilles look the best on that car, good choice going back to them 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@kevinc31 3 года назад

Just a beautiful build. All the headaches are worth it when the finished project is a masterpiece. Good job guys. Looking forward to the next project.

@pdbnc 3 года назад

I think I still preferred the throwing stars, but man there isn't a wrong choice here. I know this hasn't been an easy build, but your dedication to getting all the details correct is impressive. You can tell from across the parking lot: this car is loved.

@jdmfreak22 3 года назад

E34 Augment wheels can go on... the E34 M5 you've got back there!!! :) Love that you finished building it, tested it, ripped it, and now you are still fine tuning it and taking us along! I adore this car!

@chrisheldman4942 3 года назад

Grill, lights, wheels perfect. Great job!

Have you seen Bisi's 1000hp odyssey?

@adogmcdizzle 3 года назад

Yeah, it does - often the best drives come at unusual times, and as a petrolhead I always want to be in something sporty to take advantage! I have an S211E55 AMG. Seven seater with some V8 supercharged character.

@d4rkz3r08 3 года назад

Great video series! Love these and can't get enough!

@seancarvalho6518 3 года назад

Awesome work and dedication. Love that you went with new / old grilles!

@frozenpete788 3 года назад

To be honest, we had a X5 e53 once (fire started under hood), we removed everything from underneath with brakes, suspension and everything and we had a very hard time bleeding it. We ended up using the DIS with the actuators procedure to get rid of the air.

@ivanjovanovic362 3 года назад

M539 Restorations approves Style 65 on this car. Keep it classy, keep it OEM.

@christopherokeefe7783 3 года назад

PT you and DP hit it out of the park on the Sports Sedan Challenge. Proof positive that your pause and reconciliation of new concepts was a great choice. Can’t wait to see what’s under wraps for Speed Academy’s next build

@SR20DEBT 3 года назад

man i love this m5 build, its really heavily influenced how i think of building cars, and how im building my car. Great job guys, you knocked it out of the park with this one

@michaellorenson2997 3 года назад

I've bled slightly older BMW ABS systems using a pressure bleeder, and it worked fine. But now I just use a one-man bleeder bottle and pump the pedal. It's simpler and it works just as well. Your Dinan short-shifter rattle might only show itself in the e39 M5, due the engine's flat-plane crank, which causes funky vibrations.

@adad2757 3 года назад

The S62 uses a typical cross-plane crank.

@michaellorenson2997 3 года назад

@@adad2757 Yep, the S62 was a cross-plane engine, while the S65 was flat-plane. My mistake.

@BobbyTruffle 3 года назад

Of course it's the period correctness but there is another factor that makes you feel that these wheels are fitting this car like a glove. It is your brain that makes you feel like this and that happens because this car is "stored" in your mind exactly as you saw it when it was firstly presented 22 years ago. It was this colour, those wheels and generally this look that made you say wow when you saw it. For the same reason we like so much an E30 M3 with the factory BBS wheels, every time we see it. There may be tons of gorgeous wheels to fit those vehicles but you'll always feel great when seeing them in their factory outfit...That doesn't happen always and with all the cars. It just happens with the cars that were awesome looking from the factory...great work as always guys.

@Beatsmith2005 3 года назад

Best wheel design and paint finish ever! Glad you finally saw the light ;)

@pFbSpecV Год назад

Pretty awesome update! This m5 build is probably one of the best om this channel!

@Mike02188 3 года назад

These videos of y'all fixing the small nagging issues are great. It shows your dedication to your projects. Keep them coming.

@ficoe39udovcic40 3 года назад

One of best builds of the M5 so far. So glad I've found and subscribed to this channel. And with stock wheels it looks simply amazing. Cheers 😊

@cgmachanic 3 года назад

I had the same shifter with the same problem. I was going to do the Z3 short shifter but ended up getting the Garagistic Supreme short shifter on my e28. It's way better and the adjustment is awesome!!! No rattle at all even with my single single mass flywheel conversion

@piersclarkson9712 3 года назад

Very cool conversion!

@The_True_ 3 года назад

That new grill looks way better. Congrats! It's done and done right!

@shiftdowntv4511 3 года назад

As a wagon owner and lover, this car really came together beautifully. Hope you get years of enjoyment from it, Pete!

@BillySargent 2 года назад

Thanks for installing the absolute (IMO) finest tire on the most beautiful wheels ever made. I’v been using Conti’s (exact size as you used) on my M5 for 3 years. Love ‘em.

@d.4063 3 года назад

Loved the build. Cool model, a lot of wrenching and less talking. A car to die for!

@carlyeremian 3 года назад

Nice upgrades. Love the wheels, love the shifter, and great job solving the ABS lights coming on!! Love that car.

@bigmikes2140 3 года назад

The crimping clamps apply force completely unlike a screw clamp. We have had to replace The reservoirs on 39s and e46s with lines that just never stop leaking and showed back up after a few months. The filter in the bottom gets plugged. Definitely recommend power steering flushes on this vantage of BMWs

@Slow2Pro 3 года назад

Those throwing stars look so much better but I'm jealous of the build overall. Good job guys

@ierefaanbatchelor2578 3 года назад

The M5 wagon looks amazing and sounds. Wow, wow, wow. Original wheels and kidney grills also look the best.

@chrisstrazzulla8962 2 года назад

Thanks for the great video. I have a 99 manual 528i sport wagon. Excellent explanation of the work. Keep up your great attitude and your wagon is dialed in. Best regards!

Every time you make a E39 video, I groan and struggle through the video thinking to myself "no BMW, Yes Lexus!!!". This thing is a constant pain ...

@damajinvegeta 3 года назад

Also, when I had my E39 M5, I had to get the cluster refurb'd, the abs module reman'd, the rear view mirror replaced, fuel door actuator, and the body control module. I fixed it all and sold the car. Wish I kept it.

@witchcraftauto 3 года назад

@MrClarck100 3 года назад

That's a proper looking ride 😍😍😍 You can also use ISTA D to diagnose the module and perform a brake bleed.

@ReignitedAuto 3 года назад

I honestly can't decide between the two sets of wheels. They both give the car a completely different look 👍

@stevegivelas9769 3 года назад

@joedim 3 года назад

Well done for all the choices you made(wheels, grills, etc....) but I think their is something more that you should do.All M3, M5 etc have black fabric on the roof panel and the side panels and believe me it is much much better than the beige....It certainly worth the change....Many greetings from Greece!!!!

@newyorkstreetmachinz4769 3 года назад

For those clamps you asked about, they are just another form of clamp. They provide a better clamp force on the whole surface area of the hose, so technically, a little better. They are used more for the reason that you won't necessarily replace thise type of clamps, rather buy a new part...... I think, LoLz. We use those in plumbing on PEX piping.

@tiagobernardo6807 2 года назад

What an amazing build. Really like the finish in the stock wheels, but in the end, the 5 spokes look way better. They shouldnt, but they do. Also really glad that you choosed the chrome grill. The black one makes it look weird. What an amazing built!

@dakavanagh 3 года назад

I do really like those wheels! I think they just look natural on that wagon!

@jamest5149 3 года назад

Pressure bleed and do the old school pumping normally works using the pressure bleeder to help flow and keep the master cylinder reservoir full, but activating the ABS may be required as air can be trapped in the valves and valve body of the ABS module.

@jata1778 3 года назад

The rattle from the shifter could be residual vibration from from the driveshaft. My last shiftter sat low enough that when I accelerate the flex disc slightly makes contact. I got fed up with all the BS and went with Autosolutions. Simply the best. The oem you install will feel notchy/rubbery and eventually fall apart.
