buzzlie;505905 said:Never ending story la bro. We have 520, not enough change to 523, still not enough change to 525, then 528. Our manhood very hard to satisfy one, heheheeee.
Ken E.;505979 said:For satisfaction then should go for a 540V8.......slurrrrpppp :top:
bimmerholic;506093 said:once you get your hands on that, you'll look out for M5....no end one
Ken E.;506193 said:but then again......both may be miles apart in terms of maintenance......right?:106:
bimmerholic;506248 said:Well, since both are V8s, i bet you can replace your original 540i parts with M5 parts instead (i think). And one fine day, you can end up driving a totally rebuilt M5 on a 540i....okay that's wishful thinking now
t2ribena;506320 said:even though the S62 (M5) engine is derived from the M62 (540i) engine, so far I have not come across any parts that are compatible...even belts or belt tensioner is different...suspension wise it is very similar as it shares the V8 e39 platform...
maintenance for the M5 is much more due to its low volume production..this applies to all M cars or low production volume cars...:top:
chewkies;506322 said:HI,
Would like to ask on average how many % more compared to std e39s?
Thanks
