The non-opening tailgate glass is probably a fault with the flexible sections of loom between the glass/tailgate/body if the switch replacement hasn't fixed it. Not a horrific repair if you don't mind wires.

There's a Bulgarian guy on YouTube called Crank that seems to repair a lot of M57 engines, and he's done a few on his channel now - it seems like these later M57s CAN snap the chains without warning at higher milages, but it's nowhere near as common as on the N47/N57. I probably still won't bother unless it gets noisy! -

As the others have said, that's lovely work - I'd be more than happy with that. Looking forward to seeing the rest of it.

Probably a bit late now but when I was messing around with these bushes a heat gun made a good bit of difference, you can't use a blow torch on the ally but a hot air gun was enough to get things moving.

Top work man, I hope you're enjoying seeing it start to come together as much as the rest of us are.

I buy the cheapest MOT'd Mk5 golf in the UK. That escalated quickly...

Amen! The amount of stuff e.g. washing machines that get binned for needing a set of brushes or something else simple is outrageous. -

200k on my 2007 BMW 535d estate. Not sure if I should do the timing chain or continue to hope that everything will be OK - seems pretty happy at the moment. -
That comes from the factory, it's how you know you've got a good one. It's like having the umbrella still present in the door of a Rolls-Royce.

Glad to see you're back at it! If it's still not playing ball, one trick that has worked for me on stubborn beads is a ratchet strap around the circumference of the tyre - might be worth a go?

Oil filter pedestal gasket is a favourite on the M52, not sure if these have a similar setup but if so, that seems a likely candidate.

See how you get on and drop me a message if you want me to look at one 👍

Should be able to, yeah. Or another option is to use a broken Philips, gut it and put a whole new amplifier/BT board in the casing. You'd lose the display and a few other features though so probably best to start with a working one if possible.
-
I can probably modify the broken Sharp unit to have Bluetooth if you're interested - might take me a little while though!

Try here: https://www.bimmerscene.com/showthread.php?tid=5132 or torrent files here: https://www.bimmerfest.com/threads/ista-4-39-2x-standalone-sdp-full-4-42-1-torrent.1411305/ You don't need ISTA for aux in anyway, programming on an E61 is done using NCSExpert. Drop me a PM if you get stuck!
