I don't know how reliable is the SMG in the M5 but looking at the forum in the M5 topics it looks OK
I know that the car is very cheap now but do a bit more home work before you buy it and when you do, I love to have a go in the MD or ND
Thx Pingu. Hope that meet u guys one day ^^

My Ride: E60 530i M-Tech body kit

Very headache about my 530i AC...
A few weeks ago there was no cold air in the first 10-15 mins when cold start. After that it became normal.
Then my garage said the compressor failed and then changed that. Now it is still not working and even worst, it is not cold even after 15 mins...

Any bros can share about that? Thanks!

How much did they charged you for the compressor? The disassembling of A/C will be a lot of work since they will have to disassemble the dash ...
Did they change all related parts in the A/C system? Also did they do a flush or just using the old hose? It sounds like your A/C has some leak.

It's 5800 parts and labour just for the compressor. They said the coil was not changed yet, as you said it's very troublesome to remove the dash. I asked them will it be the AC clutch or magnetic switch as I read on other forums. But they said the whole compressor is replaced together with those parts.

Anyway they agree to recheck and will fix it again. Hope no need to get back to BMW repair.
