Alright, boys & girls! New video on the E39 M5 is here!

Would've been done few days ago, but took me a bit until I found the place and time to max out this beautiful machine on the Autobahn!
We are doing replacement of all fluids in this one, brake master cylinder upgrade and then do what it was born to do, drive fast on the Autobahn.

Enjoy and as always, thank you so much for your support!

RIP Sabine Schmitz. I’ve used Blackstone oil analysis for a very long time. The only time I’ve had an engine issue the manufacturer attempted to lay blame on poor maintenance. The complete series of oil analysis records from new put that ridiculous notion away very quickly. A brand new hemi went into the vehicle. Your autobahn speed runs leave we USA subscribers envious. Our pedestrian freeway speeds insure a no excitement ride, all the time. Your always excellent content and production quality will keep me following and supporting your channel.

When cold, I just go from 1st straight to 3rd until the car has warmed up. Love that license plate!

Hey man, so I made something for you: https://vimeo.com/524256942 What do you think? Been trying reach out to you, but my messages were probably lost in all traffic you get. ....the 2nd gear is shit too on my e39, thought the gearbox was on its way out, good to know it is a common problem.

Nice! Always great to get your summer car out of storage :)

Great video as usual. Thank you 😊

Great Video! When you talked about exhaust modifications in 31:00 I felt the typical German tüv misery. I think the modification could be tüv compliant, if you find a TÜV-Prüfer that is willing to do a „Einzelabnahme“ on your modified car. It can be a little costly and tricky to find one. Since you don’t do any modifications on „sicherheitsrelevanten Bauteilen“( Parts concerning vehicle security). The papers of the car would need adjustment though but that it is totally possible once your car had the „Einzelabnahme“. Maybe this could work for you!:)

Nice video!! I love the pulls you did on 5th gear, by the way. So buttery smooth, so easy, going from 160 kph to 240 like it was nothing. What a beast! I guess it owes to the way it was built, sure, but that many-line-long excel with maintenance items surely has something to do with it too.

I like Blackstone, it's especially good when you do it over a long period of time. California has great roads /highways but the speed limit is just ridiculously low. Got so many speeding tickets there... And I'm really happy to read that and I'm grateful for the support!

Yup, I really need to become friends with one of them. I think the place I take my car now wouldn't make me issues but you never know and it's a tone of work to install them. I'll likely have them installed at one point.

A great video! I really wish I lived closer to Germany and the Autobahn (from Sweden). Laughed to myself when you flashed the highlights - I do that (to) many times :)

E39 or E60? I'd take either (preferably both though) <3

What a great machine, that E39 is. And the Autobahn top speed run might be the ultimate benchmark after the yearly maintenance haha In respect to the differential oil change, did you notice any difference in the locking of the LSD with the new fluid? Heard that sometimes the fluid properties could change the behaviour of LSDs, especially on Torsens.

Great Video! And it got mentioned on moto1.com: https://www.motor1.com/news/496367/bmw-m5-e39-autobahn-speed-run/ Maybe this boosts your subscriptions, would be well earned!

Hey man, another great video! What would be your recommendation for a good starter car to buy and renovate on?

I believe he mentioned that the E39 was a really good platform. M5 being amazing, but 540i also really nice. E36 330i is also known to be a very nice platform to work with.

I made a mistake and put MoS2 in it which is not suitable for LSD. So I flushed it twice with just normal BMW fluid. No difference, same as always.

Another excellent video! Awesome to see one of these amazing cars not only being looked after properly but driven properly too! Also thanks for driving safely, I love fast cars and pushing them but can't stand car youtubers who drive recklessly...
