520 owners who have the stalling problem should either get their lawyers to talk to PML or to call for the press to highlight such a dangerous car to the public!

I can't imagine my car stalling in the middle of a highway and having other cars ram me from hehind! This is so scary man!! !

Got back my car today. The paint job was fantastic! PML also waxed the whole car. Now, the car is like brand new! I am waiting for the PDC and bootlide release button to come in about 1 month's time for installation. Already paid deposit for them.

Guest_Kiasu king,

The PDC is cool man. It is an option previously rumoured not retro-fit-able. You will sure enjoy the convenience of getting out of tight spots more effortlessly.

Did you go for the trunk release button? If you did, you might be the first in Singapore to have the boot release button! I really miss this feature which ought to have been there (it was in E46s, E39s ...) but sorely missed in E60.

I met up with PML workshop pple and was told that 3 sets of wire harnesses (one for grounding, one for the connection to the controller and one for illumination) were needed besides the button switch. Furthermore, there is quite some stripping of parts to facilitate the installation.

Will go in for this retro-fit when I put in my car in next to replace steering buttons (both left and right including the cover) and the rear blind (now permanently down!!)

Olivin530, the PDC and truck release button are in one package. Total cost is about $3,200. Waiting time is 1 month for installation. Now waiting patiently.

Hi Guys,

I'm new to this forum, just booked a black sapphire/black 520i from PML.. Ordered the car with PDC and 19" 124..

It's interesting to gather so much information from this forum (wish i was in this forum before I booked the car though).. Hope to learn more from you guys about the ride.. Anything I should be looking out for?

Cheers!

That means I am spending too much time on my laptop and in the net.
I even write something in word and watch TV while reading and posting here...
