    2001 525iT - Parting Out - Alpine White on Grey Interior

    This is a White 525i Wagon. It has a Grey interior with heated front seats. Car was running fine about a month ago. Now it the engine has suffered permanent damage due to oil starvation.

    Up until this point the car was well maintained. However, it somehow experienced oil starvation which has led to internal engine damage. I suspect possibly the CCV went bad and caused a sequence of failures within the engine. As of now, the car runs, but runs really rough. There is also a clunking noise within the engine. I no longer driver it. The Check Engine light is permanently on and so it will also not pass CA Smog.

    At this point, my plan is to completely part out the car. If someone is interested in buying the car as a whole, they are welcome to. I will consider selling it as is. I will only have the car another two weeks, after that it goes to the scrap yard.

    The car has new spark plugs, coil packs, rear latch struts, and even the tired only have about 3,000 miles. The body is pretty clean, however the driver's door has damage due to a parking pole. The car's transmission is also a re-manufactured unit with only 80,000 miles on it.

    If you need any particular part from the car, just shoot me a note and let me know what you need. Here are some of the parts that are available:

    Hood - $150
    Fenders - $80 (Each)
    Doors - $50 (Each)
    Radiator - $40
    Front Radiator Support - $150
    Transmission - $650
    Window Regulators - $60 Each
    Wheels / Tires - $500 (Tires have about 3,000 miles)
    Cargo Cover - $300
    Tail Lights - $150

    Thank You.

    I would like the trunk panel that covers the battery, and the subwoofer if available. Thank you.

    Edit: I'll take a window regulator as well. My rear passenger window is getting noisy.
