Saw more and more E60 on the road nowadays. I must say after owning the E60 for 5 months now, I find its shape and styling very modern and slick!

Indeed. The more one looks at the new 5, the more one finds it beautiful. The design just lasts.

Sg520, the car came with the chrome grilles when I collected them, as compliment. I suppose it was changed by my salesguy. Heard from him, it was not a simple job compared to the E46 or E39. But could be done with proper tool to remove the cover above the grilles first.
Cheers!

World, thanks. I heard it costs about $100+ if I ask pml to install. Looks like got to pay huh.

Ed520, my car also shiver during cold start. Almost die off but nvr. I think there is something wrong wif the engine management. Sometime my car jerk when I start to pick up during standstill. The adviser couldn't find the problem. We have to wait for awhile until the car is more mature. It is too new for them to resolve. I encountered another prob this morning when the seatbelt alarm buzz asking to fasten the seatbelt. I already fasten it but it still buzz. I restarted the car and it was ok. On and off these kind of prob will surface. So strange.

Anybody interested to attend the bmw training in pasir gudang?

Hi Sg520i,

What is you your car's manufacture date? You may need a software upgrade.

Cheers

sg 520i.....no shivering probs 4 me but the engine just dies off straight after start.it is so smooth that i dun even notice it dying off till i look at the rev counter.
i had a prob with the seatbelt, could not get it to come out, tried pulling at all angles but the belt just would not unroll, seems to be locked. in the end i had to drive ard with the dong dong sound the whole journey. it was alright the nxt day though

tubee, my car is 2003 production and the software was upgraded in March 04. The advisor said the prob is not the software. But they could not confirm wat is wrong. I just leave with it.

toto, they told me to install both cost 100+ leh. You special is it?

ed, this car is strange. Some time my windows buzz also. It indicated that something blocking the window from going up. BUt there isn't anything leh....siao siao. I think e60 is still unstable. Next year production should be better (I think).
