Wow those are so pretty serious symptoms. You should look at getting another 550i Sport for back up.

At least she's getting fixed!

You get your baby back yet?? How long does it take to replace a fan anyways?!?! Hopefully you'll have a quick recovery once you get it back...

I see every E60 on the road. It's like my eyes are trained to see E60s. What's terrible is that everytime I look a an E60 im like hmmm any mods? haha Idnot know why. There is a 530 with M166s and theres a 545 Sport in TG. other than that im the only one in my area. woohoo!!!
