Have you find the problem? I'm having same issue but my alternator is not charging the battery. I have no blown fuses, all wires are good/new actually. Car runs fine lights works, everything works except alternator is not charging the battery. I replaced the new one I've installed with one from junkyard but still having the problem. Please help me if you have an idea. Thanks in advance

Did you change the battery post

If so I had the same problem like a week ago now the battery light is on and it won't start but if u put a post that's too big on the negative terminal it will have too much current check out the fusable links and make sure they haven't burnt

@@R.A.N.B.I yeah I changed Battery post how would that make difference though? I also finally changed fuse box entirely and got another battery

@@R.A.N.B.I my positive post has 4 wires connected, and negative has 1 wire. ELD mostly involves charging system mainly so maybe alternator issue also

Donated it to a local charity known as the Jr. Giants which is associated with the San Francisco Giants baseball team.

This was so long ago but I believe since that e39 had a warped valve cover if I had to guess it was either 10w40 or 15w50 (would assume 10w40 but uncertain, which I know unlike my older bmws that didnt end up with 20w50 since I know the m54 wouldnt be as forgiving as the m50 if you out 20w50). Car had 193ish I believe or around that which my friend has it now and is leaking a lot since he puts 5w30 and probably should just replace the whole plastic valve cover or try 10w40/15w50 again but its running great still. I replaced this car with the current low mileage e46 which gets either 0w40 or 5w30

Thanks for the reply. I have 2002 e39 with 120k miles and every 1k miles have to add quart of oil, have no engine leak couple months ago replaced oil filter housing gasket and valve cover gasket, been using 5w30 oil and was thinking for switching to 5w40 or 10w40 to reduce oil consumption

The OnePlus 7T Pro 5G Mclaren was definitely the brightest one of the two recent phones I had when set on auto (I had the McLaren & this within the last 6 months)

It goes on during the last weeks of November each yeah. Normally $10/each but sometimes we find promotional passes

They call it San Jose South for the pick n pull location. It's in San Jose California on Monterey road.
