Rich, long time E60 M5 owner here: If you decide to keep the car for a while: - change the injectors - the buzzing sound you here is the SMG hydraulic pump priming. Don't worry - on the front of the engine there are two ionic current modules. These can cause misfires and no-start issues. - check the fuel pump, fuel breather valves (under the intake plenum) and the charcoal cannister. Check all fuses. Good luck!

Rich: If you replace the battery with a new one, you'll also need to reset the computer as the alternator varies the charge based on battery age. If you install a new battery without resetting the computer, it will continue to think that you have an old battery and will continue to send a higher and excessive charge to compensate for age, prematurely destroying the battery. This is a well known BMW issue in newer models. As for the moisture issue, I know of a great way to get rid of that, it includes a giant box and a crapton of rice...

I've owned a E60 M5 for about 7 years now, injectors are on world wide back order. They are a Bosch item so you might be able to find some Bosch ones in stock somewhere. Apart from Rod Bearings, the throttle actuators need to be rebuilt, but you can wait until they die before doing anything. Vanos is generally OK, don't really need to do anything unless you have an issue. And you already know about the SMG pump, again, doesn't need attention unless you have issues. That noise you hear when you connect the battery is the fuel pump priming, btw.

Rich, use a spray bottle filled with a sodium carbonate solution on the mold. It's $30/gal at the hardware store but you can mix your own by purchasing a box of A&H Washing Soda at the grocery store. About 1/4 cup per gal with 1 or 2 drops of dish washing soap. Spray it on and it will kill and help immobilize the fungi. After it dries, it leaves a fine white layer which prevents spores from taking hold on the surface. A damp rag will remove the residue. I'd spray every surface at least twice and then put a room dehumidifier and an ozone generator in the car and let it run for days.

It spins up to prime a pressurized reservoir which runs the clutch and shift actuators. It will occasionally kick on while the ignition is on (even if the engine is off). It sounds healthy. The good news is that it's all self-contained on the outside of the gearbox. Even the cooling, which makes the gearbox fairly easy to remove. All you have to do is unplug the harness.

Since you're a HUGE EV guy call it 'GROUNDED. Definately pull the fuel lines from the rails and run an external tank up front for all the gasoline to pump (water,etc.) out of the back. Test all your coil packs. Drain your oil and flush the whole system including the radiator. Plan on spending $400.00. A new battery is close to that anyhow. Feel guaranteed that all the relays that send lights to your computer are jacked up and hot swap every one. Chase that GREMLIN! Cheehoo!

My best friends dad bought one of these M5s when they first came out and I was about 20 at the time. I have a lot of good memories cruising in that car.

Well Rich, I have you beat I picked up a 2008 M5 fully running and driving on fleabay same color much better condition. I got it for 4500 in 2019. It needs new seats because the leather was trashed and needs a new paint job. Mechanically it was fine, I did rod bearings my self and actually they were pretty good at 120k. I have a few of these M5s so LMK if you have questions.

The injector spray patterns look like absolute garbage by the way so I would definitely clean those. It looked to me like it tried to spray for 1-2 rotations and then the ECU actually cut off the injectors, so my suspicion is the computer is not seeing crank or cam signals or another sensor is telling the ECU to shut off fuel and ignition.

I agree, they just look gummed up.

Yeah, it did look like they were just spraying badly and then just fuel cut.

I jump-started a 5 series the other week. [ not a German car guy at all ] There's a 12V stud high on the L/H side of the engine bay for jump starts, attach your jump-pack there in future ;-)

For the most part it's an easy fix but it takes time to search and find the source of the problem. Great job for doing this to a nice M5

Good luck!! While you are replacing the fuel injectors please don’t forget the coil packs.. im sure u will have to do the fuel pump soon anyways.. and also the little humming noise when u open the door .. its the smg pump priming .. so that is always a good sign! Plan to swap all the fluids out and check for the metallic pieces in the filter .. if u see gold.. u hit the gold rush jack pot and run 😂.. cant wait to see what else u find!

Water leaks from backed up sunroof drains are very common on the E60. The ends of the rear drains are star shaped and fuse themselves together when there are debris. Using scissors a small cut is all that is required to stop this after you have cleaned the drains. Normally this fills the control units in the boot too which makes sense watching your video.

Quite common issue in newer german cars is that the injectors clog up with gunk, especially with high mileage. You will have to buy new ones or clean the old ones reeal good out in something like an ultrasonic cleaner or with high pressure

Hey Rich you should try staining the interior a different color.. I’d like to see how those DIY processes look/ hold up.

Check the drains right under the front cabin filters. They block and water fills up there like a tank and overflows into the front foot wells. The worst of it is the active steering ECU is located in the foot well and almost certainly it fries. I had to go through 2 before I extended the harness and relocated it under the dash.

Ha! 27:50 reminds me of my old E61 (wagon variant) 525i beamer. I had to swap all six injectors TWICE, because they kept breaking / clogging. After that it ran smooth for years. According to some forums the injectors are a known issue for the E60/E61 models. Oh, and I also bought mine used back in the day. Fun times.
