I don't know if your trailer is special, but generally you want to have the cars on them balanced over the axles. If a car is too far back, the trailer will rock and make the towing car sway and move a lot. If it's too far forward like that it'll make the front end of the towing vehicle light, making it sway also, but under extreme circumstances can also make breaking nearly impossible.

Because new car designers and engineers aren't as smart as they think they are. I bet if you talked to an auto engineer from the 70's they see what they're doing with cars now and scream. One such example is: I have an F150. The battery went dead and sat for a while. When I charged up the battery the power windows didn't work. I found out the "ecu has to re-learn that you have power windows" why in the hell are the power windows connected to the ECU? It's a freaking switch that makes the window go UP and the window go DOWN. No complicated wiring harness wired to the ECU is necessary. Same as the sun roof, the power rear sliding window, everything. There's actually a printed circuit board under the switches that is a common fail point.

@@muskokamike127 wrong, they are ensuring that basic maintenance is done at the dealer, which will discourage the diy guy from doing any larger repairs or maintenance if they make the most basic of procedures more difficult. It ensures most, if not all maintenance is performed in house, generating revenue and upselling opportunities for other repairs. It is a smart business move when you already have a demand for your brand simply because of it's name, people will still buy it and brag about how elite the service being performed is.

I just deleted my prior comment by mistake, fat fingers. I posted before for you to look into the O-ring on the oil pump as they go bad, harden, crack, fail and engine loses pressure and boom!. Also, E55 sedan is such a bargain for the money. Great car, great vid. Thumbs up.

Sam which youtube are you going to get to fix this one ?

[@scoobywrxracer]

Sam that's a e63 bumper. Also you have a blue interior. -somewhat rare lol. Btw for the coilovers be sure to program it out in star. If your control arms are used get new febi bushings. I have the same car. And a 360 spider too. For the headlights be sure to get the 03/04 headlights.

bad idea removing the air suspension. that car will never ride the same again

[@wowfreaker]

Correct because now it isnt broken anymore.

[@catalinxnecula]

@@wowfreaker you're right. is not broken anymore. it's brand new and it's shit. the car is designed to be comfortable and you will never get the same level of comfort from coil overs

[@rcairforceone]

@@catalinxnecula That's not an absolute. Plus air suspensions are not as reliable over time, and are expensive to repair. It's only a bad idea if you are committed to keeping the car all original. If I had a E55 I'd want to track it, so I would replace the OE air ride too.

[@brunoglopes]

Cars&Roads UK did you watch the video? He doesn’t want the car to be comfortable, he wants it to be sporty.

[@catalinxnecula]

@@brunoglopes i assume that you're all american commenting here and because of that i'll rest my case.

M5 color is called Frozen Dark Red Metallic, it was a color option only available for launch edition vehicles. Very cool car!

[@jo_hannesde6513]

Well, now it's a bmw m5 compact.

[@patricesolutions]

Hey Sam! That red “dipstick” is for oil, but the full dipstick is a special tool! Trans dipstick has a black handle. Ask me how I know!

[@busterscrugs]

did you happen to pour the wrong fluid down the wrong tube?

[@printhubbrasil]

FINISH THE OTHER BUILDS JESUS, you have 30 cars and 0 finished, what is your problem?

[@raulbos2296]

João Ebel I agree

New viewers and it’s interesting

[@joeysweet9045]

@@bootlegscarce0844 I think he had a Porsche Cheyenne he traded the money pit for what did he do with it?

[@ThaKillerKlown]

He finished the Super Duty as well.

[@LMacNeill]

I was expecting just a "look at this car that I bought" video -- but got some repair stuff, too. Cool! Good luck with this one!

[@AutoTechWorld_DIY]

Another great video. The Mercedes looks nice 👌

[@digitalmaniak3k]
