@ SMG?

[@domegrobnik74]

@ Europe has only SMG trans in the E60 M5,but we got 6-speed manual in the closest cart to M5 and that is 545i

[@EidolWays]

The only problem is BMW basically parts-binned it and used the transmission from the 545i, as others have said. The synchros can't really keep up with the revs, so a 1->2 quick shift on a full-throttle pull is... eh. I cannot do it without grinding gears, even if I kick the clutch pedal through the floor. So I just have to wait a second between shifts. Then it'll slot into second without grinding.

[@robi4387]

@@EidolWays Interesting to know. Everyone on the internet praises the manual. SMG does take a bit of getting used to. Sometimes it will pull away in 1st sometimes in 2nd, but right now the alternator has gone. So it is not going anywhere in any gear. BTW, here in the UK there are quite a few 645i, 650i, 545i and 550i with the SMG box but very few manuals.

If some kid pointed out in a critique of my post that over reacting is one word or perhaps should hyphenated I'd be thrilled. Don't know myself to be honest. I expect ( I know ) we have more to worry about than this, but I think kids who post like this maybe are the victims of our complacency. They're not nasty, they just haven't had good role models ( that would be us ) They had to make it all up for themselves as they went along because we were too busy with other things. Mostly, they haven't done too bad. We need to do better however because like most western nations we are headed into a period of domestic economy and we need to be united to make that work - kids included.

Advanced drivers are taught not to use the indicators unless they are of use to other road users. Makes using them a conscious decision rather than a zombie/subconscious action. For instance. If you are going to use an off ramp and there’s traffic about, you indicate your intention. If you are about to use an on ramp, regardless of traffic, there’s no need to indicate. Other road users know you have no other place to go but into Lane one. Just sayin.

Finally a car KZbinr who doesn't say "reeeee German cars are complicated junk just buy an old Toyota"

[@heavyweight6440]

This is why i dont like "Hoovie".

[@ginofoogle6944]

yeah that guy is a moron.. german cars are the best. only idiots would say otherwise..

[@mikemoyercell]

@@ginofoogle6944 toyotas are not that great in my opinion but then again ive always been a bmw owner. I'd rather drive something with style, performance and reliability. That is a BMW in my book.

[@fredlachy]

For non millionaires the advice remains sound. But if you have money you are just wasting your life going around in a Toyota!

[@TwoDollarGararge]

@@ginofoogle6944 I think Toyotas are great if you just want a set of four wheels to get you from point A to point b and back to A and spend minimal money on it but you know they're not going to be fun and the fun ones are expensive look in like most other fun cars that are relatively new

1st view on your channel. Recommended by a friend. I've worked with a lot of Lufthansa mechs on various contracts in aviation, you remind me of many of them! Thorough and good mech skills, way better than 99% of what horrifies me on KZbin car content. Good work man, I've subbed and it's awesome to see you've got a tonne of videos for me to geek out on now and enjoy! Respect!

Great video, love the M5. I'm keeping a 25 year old e36 alive.

I'm super excited for "part two" of this rebuild... subscribed!

Schön zusehen das es noch richtige Mechaniker gibt! Teile wechseln kann jeder aber richtig reparieren können leider wenige nur noch wir der Alten Schule wo aufgewachsen sind da wo es keine Neuen Teile gibt 😊 gruss aus Bosnien 🇧🇦 🤗

Who said Germans don't have a sense of humor? I had a good laugh! Thank you for posting!

[@wienerchronist9860]

I do not want to disappoint you, the very nice and funny man hardly speaks German. His German sounds like that of a Russian.

[@Xzizia92]

Wiener Chronist to me he sounds like his from the Balkans, maybe Croatian

[@Aralakh919]

@@wienerchronist9860 I'd say the same.

[@Xzizia92]

@@Aralakh919 I found his name in the description, he is Serbian or Montenegrin

[@johngregg401]

I bought my M5 with the engine in boxes 8 months ago. I'm nearly ready to get it on the road and the ABS pump has failed. Knew I remembered you doing a rebuild in this video. Just got the link from you, thank you 😁

[@halfaouiyounes1568]

OMG the underneath is so clean , what a lucky buy , i love it

[@BMWGarage77]

Great find bro!! Looks like a winner!!! Good luck with the TUV!! Maybe paint that sway bar black! 😜

[@TheAndonen]

These videos are so addictive to watch.

"If germans dont overcomplicate the transport, no one will" LMAO this had me rolling!
