Thanks for a great review and buyer’s guide. My 2006 E60 M5 has been with the family for over 10 years. Your summary of potential issues is accurate, and indeed most have been experienced with our M5 during ownership. It has challenged the wallet on occasion and sometimes we question our sanity. It’s still parked outside though and we continue to love the car.
Excellent
About the e92, was the timing chain thing been improved or nearly fixed in the 2011 to 2013 models?
@madhunter6420 we have done a separate buyers guide for the E92 M3, link below, the bearings were changed in 2011, these are considered an improvement but from our research some owners (albeit a smaller proportion) still had issues 👍

@@themilesdriven and about the non m3 version? I watched them but i didnt quite fully understand some specific details
Apologies, our mistake, we though you were asking about the connecting rod issue on the M3. The E90/E92 with 2.0d and 2.0I engines had a timing chain issue until 2010. A revision in 2010 (2011 model year) was a big improvements and reduced failures BUT didn't entirely resolve it. The 3.0 engines and the early 2.5 did not have this problem 👍

@@themilesdriven The 2.5 and 3.0 dont have any of those issues? Which were the most reliable years of 2.5 and 3.0, and for 2.0 engine which i guess it was called n47, year 2013 was the best?
Thx for the good info
Buy 2009 /2010 only the factory take action on the past failure issues
Planning on buying one spring of 2024, I just had a feeling that the older ones had failure issues I was planning on getting a 2010 one anyway!, thanks for advice
@@bully8k any update? how is the car
@@madhunter6420he can’t afford it
great video

So in summary - YOU think a horrible poxy wagon with 6-slot POS box (from a 540i) is the pick of the M5 range yeah? I've heard enough that says it all 🤣😂🤣
