Too bad you wasted all that cash on those useless "Mods" good luck with the slush box auto and have fun with the timing chain guides rattle. Are you going to ask your father for a small loan since you spent all your money on some decals and blue lights?

gmak: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. A journey with my new-to-me 2000 540i
"Working on a BMW E39 is the best way to run out of time."
We went backpacking in the Desolation Wilderness so Blue sat for over a week. After returning, started Blue and the infamous, perceived to be, "TCG rattle" reared it's ugly head for the first time in a looong time (after using Castrol GTX Magnatec 5W-30, the rattle has been mostly subdued). Every subsequent start has been silent so I believe that I have correctly attributed the "TCG rattle" to the Vanos unit because of the O-ring issue. Magnatec appears to keep enough oil in the Vanos unit to reduce the rattle's occurrence...

I agree with GearFinger on everything he said, plus the music you used on the video is absolutely ... errr.... let's just say it matches your taste for "mods". I don't think it's riced, but it certainly looks like a romanian/latvian "bmw mafia" cars. Eurocheesed.
I think that your dad saying he woulnd't drive that anynmore could have hinted you as to what level of appreciation a true BMW enthusiast feels about spending a whackload of hard earned cash (at least by dad) in "fancy bling-o" instead on maintenance items.
Diehard E39 driver.
I'd rather die or take a walk before driving an E60 or any BMW made after Y2K.

I've come around to this view. While I replaced mine when I got the car due to consensus view, I don't think its the issue people think it is, unless somehow a tensioner won't hold oil pressure anymore but like a stuck hydraulic lifter, that's extremely rare/freak in this day and age.
Yep. We're all a buncha mean old meanies. There should be a safe space. Good thing there's no swearing allowed on this forum or we'd probably be really terrible!
Heh heh. Eurocheeze. I like it.

Nice, I guess.
But curious: Do you know the definition of "couple"?
