Hi y'all
New here, so let me introduce myself and my ole granpa E61 535.
We are out of Illinois and we wanna all of you to join our journey to rejuvenate this old granpa.
So i have the car for 5 months and the plan was to bring it to OEM plus condition with throwing some Msport bumpers and side skirts and wheels, lower it just enjoy it.
But of course with old bmw its never that simple…
The very first thing and worst thing that happened was that the car got flooded a month ago and all the modules in the trunk were soaking wet.
All the possible lights and off course the air suspension stopped working. For a whole month i was trying to install INPA and NCS expert to reprogram the new modules i got but all the versions of the diagnostic tools didn’t work there was always a error. The compressor did work but never filled the bags,so I decided it to go with ICS coilovers.
So now I’m waiting for new coilovers, new powerstop brake kit with drilled and slotted disc, replace all worn out suspension parts.
Already started on replacing valve cover gasket,spark plugs,coils all kinds of gaskets, vacuum lines and more.
And also waiting for a new Schmiedmann muffler.
