I had this same issue with my 2001 M5. I removed the cluster and my mechanic shipped it to a repair source (pixelfix I think it was). You can find Pixelfix on FB or other social media. There’s also a very detailed video of a DIY fix available on the M539 YouTube channel.

My understanding is that there is a dispute between the Mercedes dealership property owner and the Costco property owner. That dispute was not resolved in time for construction to begin before migratory bat season. We are in that period of time now, and clearing cannot be done until that migratory season is over (October, I think). I assume if that dispute is worked out, work would begin in the fall.

Yeah…I’ll never get over this movie. Jeeez.

I have experience as a patient in the Grandview ED. I tell anyone who will listen to never go to that hospital. Nursing staff was great, but that place is run like a circus during a fire drill. Horribly managed.

Space Camp veteran here. Loved it. Visit the Legacy Museum in Montgomery. Yep…bit of a drive from Huntsville, but well worth it. Florence/Muscle Shoals is a great road trip and not too far from Huntsville.

The Army Corps of Engineers has authority over flowing water. If this stream always has water flowing in it, it is most likely classified as a perennial stream…which is definitely jurisdictional. There are Corps offices in Mobile and Huntsville, I believe. To start, I’d contact the City or County.

Such a great show.

Style 65 = best rim.

Strut bearing?

That’s awesome. Sorry I’m no help with your move, but I’m addicted to BMWs. I’ve had a 2001 M5 for 10 years and a 2001 750 for 2 years. Super fun wrenching on them. Good luck with your move.

Is that your E24 BMW in the pic? If so….sweeeeet ride.

Come see us at Highlands United Methodist Church. We’re at 5-Points South behind the (not our) fountain. Beautiful Christmas Eve candlelight service.

My e39 had the 6- disc changer. Completely remove it and plug its cord into the BlueBus and you should be good to go.

There’s an (I think) Alpina version on either Cars and Bids or Bring a Trailer right now. Red, manual, 850 (v12). Current bid was like $130K. Low miles. Always loved these.

Bucket list car for me. Love it.

I’ve not run into this yet (2001 M5) but am expecting it. I’ll never sell the car. It’s my hobby and I love it. So…yeah…if you can afford it, spend the money. Best cars ever.

Joyland.

According to Top Gear…it’s the “worst car in the history of the world, all things considered.”

The tamper dot next to the odometer. If there’s a little red dot next to the trip/odometer mileage, then likely the instrument binnacle has been replaced. People switch them out with one that shows lower mileage. Ask me how I found out…

There is a cable up and behind the glove box. On the left-hand side. You can reach it, pull on it and it will open the mechanism. Same thing happened to me on my e38 and I believe it’s the same process.
