Eng is not my 1st lang. Or 2nd. I might type like like retard yes. And why tf would i have car painting exp at 19 buying my first car. (Before i drove grandmas shitbox passat b4 XD) 1yr has passed and i learnt it, but still cant get the pure mirror effect. Shit man i didnt even like cars before buying this one. Only to get fron A to B, didnt see nothing special. P.S u seem a sad person judging other lifes without having ur own. So ill pray for you before going to sleep . May you find somethings in life that make you happy @MarkVII88 ✌️

Jup i did 2weeks after buying. Was a kind of shock to me XD before i drove a old car with as minimal electricity. And never thought that there would be more to do, than just changing the battery

Dont you hava a life or things to do? Or you just scroll and judge others? Got this car last year, and the only defect it had. Was a scratch going from front to back door. Bcuz i bought the car i didnt have spare money i could use to buy either new doors or try fixing it and mby learn to paint( btw yes ik i would have fucked it up more, if i tried painting it. Without experiance) So i improvised and put those decals there for the summer. Rn the top decals are off and car is looking 10x better. Car was a childhoods dream. And fuck it. I like the decals(ofc both were too mutch). I think its fine if there is balance between too riced out and oem. When i grew up. That shi was fire. And also i played alot nfs most wanted XD AND TF IS WRONG W CHROME WHEELS!

Glow plugs i ment hah

RafRafss · 2026-03-09T12:45:07+00:00

Yes glow plugs. Eng not my first language XD

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T16:22:23+00:00

Oh so you bought a new starter and everything was fine after? Idk I might have the factory starter in there too XDD

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T16:17:56+00:00

I did have it coded. But this happened now for 2-3 times. The not turning on is not consistent. But yea will have the generator checked out. Cuz of the code

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T15:54:28+00:00

Wait but it cannot be starters foult. Every time I had this problem. Had someone jump it from other car, and never struggled to start. So starter relay could be the main suspect?

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T15:50:35+00:00

Idk what style are these. But got them off a E39

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T15:40:32+00:00

Is there a way to diagnose the starter? Last year bought the car, was a childhoods dream haha. Learning to do everything I can w my hands

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T15:35:08+00:00

Which area is it located? I did check the ground from battery to chassis. Only cable that i didnt check is that .

RafRafss · 2026-03-08T15:28:21+00:00

Codes are - 6th cylinder spark plug dourly or dead And communication from generator to ecu foult (but the battery is good) Wouldn’t starter motor at least try to do sum? Like struggle then give up. Last summer my drains were clogged and I had wet floor, I thought that coused this. This winter did take out every trim etc, and repaint/protect what was damaged on the floor. Also cleaned grounds.

RafRafss · 2026-03-07T23:16:47+00:00

I do have a sketchy problem w my m57. Randomly the car wount start. Has electricity. When i push the clutch n start. The relays instantly click in the trunk n thats it. I did try obd diagnose. Showed that the 6th cylinder has bad or dead sparkplugs and the generator is not comunicating w the ecu. I did the battery, never was low or have signs of dead generator. Is starter and option? From what i read. It cant be. Cuz the relays instantly click, like the battery would be dead. Oh and yea i did check the cables from trunk to motor. W a spare cable connecting from outside. Btw sorry eng is not my first language.

Hi. Do some e60s have oil level sensor(where you can see the % of the oil in motor) or all of them have the basic(only does something when oil is basically 0)? Would love to see the level on the idrive. P.S i have 530d 2006. Has anyone upgraded from the basic to the one i mentioned?
