Stop putting ideas in my head
I have looked at a DPF Removal in the past but have always been on the fence about it. Did it make much difference to the sound and turbo lag, not that there is much lag anyway. she pull like a train.

I think that i'm going to start moding her again, I had lost intrest in the car but now I'm having to spend out for the diff might as well go all in.

Haha!

Removing the DPF didn't change the behaviour of the car anyhow. Only a little smoke cloud on a full throttle.

I do miss the old days of clouds for diesel smoke.

That, my friend... would have been my question
Instead: Congrats on the V10 beast and lots of luck with it! If you manage to improve it visually beyond the 530d, that will be a new high.

What's the M5 interior like? Black? Does it have full leather? It will be harder to beat it, but I'm sure you have some trumps up your sleeve haha

Anzafin

Yes the interior is full black leather with brushed aluminium trim. And I do have some (simple) ideas for it .

Update.
No Quaife..
After taking my diff off and having a look, it needed new everything. So i sent it off to have the quaife fitted and was told that it's going to be over £2500 for new bearings and seal and the quaife. Then I still have to fit it. I said not thanks I'll get one from a breakers.
Then bought a second hand diff from a breaker to find that it got damaged threads, so that will be sent back. Now this has been going on for 3 weeks now and i've had enough.

It's going to BMW for a new diff at Around £2000 also going to have a oil service and winter check up. Repair to the front and rear bumper (My mum borrowed it and it came back with damage to the front and back, She's not using it again) And i'm sure they'll find something else for my to spend on it.

The Diff is on back ordered from Germany, going to be 2 weeks
I know it's going to cost alot but I don't have the time or energy, I just want it done.

Anzafin

Ouch! Sorry to hear about that all. I would probably think/feel the dame; no matter what ir costs, just would like to get it done. Keep your chin up my friend!

Its still at bmw waiting for the Germans to pull there finger out and send over my new diff.
I'm now having to drive around in new ford focus. What a piece of s##t.

I should be getting the car back next week, it can't come soon enough. I miss my heated seats and some real power.
