So I took the rebuilt 535 on about a 500 mile round trip fishing trip this weekend and it performed flawlessly. It really does feel perfect. I am a very happy guy right now. I was smiling all weekend even though we caught very few fish. I am now about 6 months into my lease and there is only ~2000 miles on it.


PS... When I picked my car up this past Wednesday, I said to the shop manager.. "I bet your happy to be getting rid of this thing" to which he replied... "I am, but we got another one in today with nearly the same type of damage and I told the guy flat out that if it is repairable it will take at least 3 months." I guess we all learn from the past.

Good to hear that in the end it all worked out and that you will be able to enjoy your E60 for the remainder of the lease.

Trails and tribulations of owning a BMW e60.... This will be my second book after Dave's drama with the 530 and the 550 and the M5, which by the way he finally bought.

Hey dave
