My BMW E60 M5 gets an Eisenmann RACE EXHAUST.. ENDS BADLY (Gearbox Destroyed)

[@TRHamza]

RIP SMG

[@BenyaminA1]

Love the car and the content!! I had similar problem in my M6, but mine wouldn't go in gear at times. Turned out to be clutch slave cylinder, so changed the clutch and flywheel as had to remove gearbox to locate the slave cylinder. Good choice for the exhaust, same as the one I got. Sounds even naughty if u remove the secondary cats!! Get an evolve remap, will transform the car totally with the mods!! Wish u all the best bro..

[@jonathanroidkroghteigen2723]

I have a SMG E46 M3. I'd love to see what you gotta do in order to fix the SMG gearbox, then I can be prepared to what may come my way too. Love the content of all your videos! GL hope the SMG M5 V10 gets back on the road shortly!

[@munich.motorwerks]

Wow, Eisenmann 😮. The system every BMW nut dreamed about putting on their car in the early-mid 2000s, no matter if it was actually an M or just 318i 😂. Big investment for an exhaust but well worth it. Cannot share the view of some people that this car is a money pit. All older BMWs will have issues, especially if one drives them properly. If you still love it, fix it use it and potentially fix it again 😬.

[@tracktimevideos5164]

That Eisenmann exhaust sounds amazing 🔥, & from the big smile on your face, I can see how much you were enjoying it too! It's a real shame about the problems you faced with the clutch/gearbox, but perhaps now's the time to consider installing a totally manual gearbox. Whatever you decide, just keep 'living the dream!'

[@jaswili]

Anyone doing burnouts like that on a dry grippy road is going to break the gearbox

[@jimtaylor431]

If memory serves, last time he had problems start to show up with the SMG, it was after doing burnouts.. probably time to take the hint that the gearbox doesn't like it.

[@mista5796]

Exactly what I was thinking when watching it. Doing repeated burnouts like that in the dry puts so much load through the gearbox it heats right up. Everything is in the gearbox is now working inside a pressure cooker.

[@SKROHAAN22]

The sound is just sensational, lots of surport from South Africa bro 💪👌🔥💥

[@malikie90]

Car sounds mad can’t wait to see more content sad time for e60 but hey guess we gonna get more fun from it after the common faults

[@JunYamog]

Have done something similar, I guess when your clutch is thin already downshifting on 8k rpm can destroy the remaining clutch. After that my shifts has become rough from standstill. When we opened the clutch, 1/2 of clutch was gone. I think the robot did actually well driving with 1/2 clutch plate. The gearbox is pretty ok, I suggest when you drop it to shrink wrap or in my case put liquid electrical tape on the wiring harness. You will see it on the top, the wires are thin so best to protect it. This part can’t be bought individually, it comes with the gearbox. I also did mine using Luk and Sachs clutch kit from FCP Euro.

[@MrWaheedulHaque]

I don't know how you so happy after this happened haha, my heart dropped when i had to get a turbo replacement on my bmw 😭
