@@CentTxLiving wow, keep that car stock as u can, perform the oil changes, always warm the car driving slowly before push it hard, use OEM coolant, you have a piece of art, got any picture by any chance?
I know right! The s85 is one of the greatest sounds imo. The weather around here has been kind of cruddy, so I haven't been making videos, but I definitely want to in the near future. 😁👍
😆 I got busted. Yes, that would be the area. Lol These cars really do add some fun to the driving duties, especially on the twisty back roads. Thanks for watching, I hope to see you around and in another bimmer.
It was one of my dream cars too, that's why I decided to take the plunge and get one at a time that it seemed the market was a bit low for them. I wish you luck, cheers.
On S6 in M mode at redline, the SMG 3 makes DCT boring. It just bangs the car into the next gear and it’s pretty addicting. You don’t get this experience from a DCT.
You're right about that, the dct is a faster shifting trans, but that would detract from the car I believe. These car are extremely engaging, and visceral. You feel what it's doing and what it's about to do and the raw experience you get from just driving it is amazing. These cars are hoodlums, just begging you to go faster, rev harder and brake deeper. It takes a good amount of control to drive it with civility. 😁
F”ck what dump people say about it, e60 m5 is formula 1 engine n only v10 dat m5 ever build. Can’t wait to build my ones, I got 2 of em, one is manual other one is smg, both 2008 edition.
First! Great video, sir! Check engine code? On a BMW? Nooooo! Lol! Glad to hear you figured it out and it was just a gas cap. Keep these videos coming!
They (some enthusiasts) say it is, but I'm keeping an eye on the oil samples. But, the lci cars already have the updated oil sprayers for the pistons, and all the other lci updates. If that one only has 50k, I'd make sure it has a good history and a clean ppi, if those are good snatch it up. 😁
Hey man, this might be a strange request/comment but can you let me know if you see a later model 09/2010 MANUAL E60 M5 pop up for sale. I been looking everyday for a while but no success. I know they're pretty rare but I know they're out there...
Nope: Ecuwerx tune stage 2 Bmc filters with charcoal delete Afe air scoops AIT relocation Headers gutted, secondaries removed, supersprint x pipe Secondary 02s deleted Cold start/ secondary air delete H&R springs Dinan negative camber plates 20mm spacers front, 15mm on rear Brembo big brake kit front and rear I'm sure there's a thing or two I don't remember. It's basically moderately modified and a bit quicker than stock.
Oh I plan too in spring. I was just experimenting with different options, but now I'm ready to go full V10 roar with no restrictions or mufflers of any kind. 😁 thanks for the comment, and I'll post in spring when it's done.
I'm at 93,000 miles and I keep a close eye on the oil analysis reports from each oil change at 5k. I think in the near future [probably next summer], I will have them done- just for peace of mind. I have heard on some forums that the connecting rod issue was corrected for my2010, but I think I'll still replace them just in case, the throttle actuators as well. An ounce of caution goes a long way with these cars. Thanks for the comment.
@@CentTxLiving i have excat car mine is 2010 e60 m5 as well and i had to replace the whole engine lucky i had the extended warranty so the warranty they actually found me an engine with really low milage it was only 58.000mls. It was all because of the rod bearings issue the bearings actually had fail on me and this is because of the previous owner he never really toke care of them. And i ended up with replacing the whole engine because rod bearings had fail so bad that it destroyed the crankshaft. Anyways now tje car is in good hands lol. Oh and I recommend you to ise 5W50 RedLine oil this is the best oil for this kind of cars trust me.
Thanks for the tip! The last thing I want is an engine replacement. I have been using liqui moly 10w-60, with oil changes every 5k miles. I'll research the oil you recommend, thanks again.
@@CentTxLiving how about the clutch my friend? Still on the original clutch? Amazing how the clutch is so sturdy on these cars. I’m at 58k miles and still on the original bearings and clutch. About to change the transmission and differential fluid. I’ll probably do the bearings in the summer using VAC Motorsport bearings and ARP bolts. Will change the high pressure oil line and engine mount as well. Maybe do the spark plugs if the shop gives me a decent price or I’ll just change them myself. About $2-3k in maintenance on these cars every couple years will make the high-revving S85 V10 last a lifetime. By the way, the 2010 model’s oil analysis can’t be trusted cause BMW changed the bearing material from copper so it’s not 100% accurate of the condition of the bearings. But as long as you heat up the oil to 210F before redlining it, you should be okay. However, you’re lucky as the S85 king, Troy Jeup, lives in Michigan and he does stroker rebuilds for our M5s. Michelin PS4s on these M5s are a dream. They corner like they’re on rails. Especially once the tires heat up.
I'm on the original clutch as well, and your right it is amazing how sturdy these clutches are, even with increased horsepower. During next summer I plan on changing the connecting rod bearings, Vanos line, and have a look at the valve cover seals. Also, I need to replace the throttle actuators, and probably replace the thermostat while I have the intake disassembled. I like to use the oil analysys checks just to identify changes in the oil as the mileage increases, instead of just looking at copper content. I change my oil every 5000 miles, and a use Liqui Molly 10w60 oil, so far that has worked pretty well for my engine. But, I still want to change the connecting rod bearings to avoid any failures. You're right about properly heating the engine oil, I have a very rigid approach to completely warming the car up before I get anywhere near the red line. It's a habit I learned from my e34 M5 years ago. If I come to a point where the engine needs to be rebuilt, then I will definitely try the Troy Jeup stroker engine rebuild. For tires I'm using the continental extreme contact, they seem to work really well with our sometimes unpredictable summer weather. I really appreciate the comment, and the discussion about these wonderful cars. I truly intend to keep this car and enjoy it to its fullest for a very long time, and I wish you the same. Cheers
2010 are so so so rare, seems like people stop ordering them from 2008 and so knowing the next m5 was about to be release in 2011
I want the 2010 one so bad but i’d take an 09 too
They are a lot of fun. I've recently discovered that mine is 1 of 15 for 2010. 😁👍

Do not sell it@@CentTxLiving
That engine sound is magical! Almost sounds like a very muffled F1 race car!
Thanks bud, I love it too.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful drive and the scenery! Mexico is beautiful this time of year! 😝 Great video!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 ikr
Beautiful drive, lovely scenery!!!
Thank you sir. 👍
Love that wood trim, classy.
such a good drive and respect for the others!
That is a must on an open road. 👍
My gosh it sounds so good
Thanks buddy, I sure like it.
Nicely done sir! But now I just want to upgrade my 2006 CCC to that lovely looking CIC you have :)
Thank you sir. The LCI cars are a bit of an upgrade. The pre cars are just as nice. 😁👍

11:20 omg the sound please make more vids
I know right! The s85 is one of the greatest sounds imo. The weather around here has been kind of cruddy, so I haven't been making videos, but I definitely want to in the near future. 😁👍
Based on where you started, I figured you'd end at Mexico's original EJ plant. Just sold our 2010 535. Our roads up here are boring without it.
😆 I got busted. Yes, that would be the area. Lol These cars really do add some fun to the driving duties, especially on the twisty back roads. Thanks for watching, I hope to see you around and in another bimmer.
Thanks for the video! One of my ultimate favourite cars 👌🏽
That M5 is my dream car i wish i can able to buy that car as soon as possible. Have fun with the last monster
It was one of my dream cars too, that's why I decided to take the plunge and get one at a time that it seemed the market was a bit low for them. I wish you luck, cheers.
Great engine, jerky gearbox!
Yes to both. The SMG 3 does take some getting used to.
On S6 in M mode at redline, the SMG 3 makes DCT boring. It just bangs the car into the next gear and it’s pretty addicting. You don’t get this experience from a DCT.
You're right about that, the dct is a faster shifting trans, but that would detract from the car I believe. These car are extremely engaging, and visceral.

Nice! I wish you luck with those. I've starting exploring the idea of a dct install.
Driving starts at 1:30
Great drive and sound! Love the scenery up there... I mean... down there in "Mexico"! ✌😂
😄 good save. Lol.
Would love to have a 2010 !!! Have a 2007 53k miles
Wow! That's a low mileage car. Mine already has about 94k miles. Both cars are great, and they're both rocking that glorious s85. 😁
10:10
That is a great road to drive, especially when there's no traffic on it- which is rare.
First!
Great video, sir!
Check engine code? On a BMW? Nooooo! Lol! Glad to hear you figured it out and it was just a gas cap. Keep these videos coming!
Yeah, I don't how I didn't notice that when I got gas. 🤷♂️ good to go now though 👍
Awesome car.
Thank you sir. 😁👍
Is the 2010 more reliable? I found a 2010 with 50k miles for sale I wanted to pick up
They (some enthusiasts) say it is, but I'm keeping an eye on the oil samples. But, the lci cars already have the updated oil sprayers for the pistons, and all the other lci updates. If that one only has 50k, I'd make sure it has a good history and a clean ppi, if those are good snatch it up. 😁
Wish you had closed the window! 😩
Next time, and there will be a next time, I will make sure to keep the window up to drown out the window noise. 😁
Hey man, this might be a strange request/comment but can you let me know if you see a later model 09/2010 MANUAL E60 M5 pop up for sale. I been looking everyday for a while but no success. I know they're pretty rare but I know they're out there...
I know that's right; I think you have a better chance of seeing Bigfoot. Lol. I will keep an eye out though. 👍
@@CentTxLiving
LOL thanks
I think your daughter was asleep ? Lol. Great car !
Thank you for the compliment, but that was my wife. She was quietly keeping her panic suppressed. Lol.
😝 ok then.didnt think you were going that quick . Anyway , great video. All the best to you and your family. Cheers from down under.
Is it completely stock??
Nope:
Ecuwerx tune stage 2
Bmc filters with charcoal delete
Afe air scoops
AIT relocation
Headers gutted, secondaries removed, supersprint x pipe
Secondary 02s deleted
Cold start/ secondary air delete
H&R springs
Dinan negative camber plates
20mm spacers front, 15mm on rear
Brembo big brake kit front and rear
I'm sure there's a thing or two I don't remember. It's basically moderately modified and a bit quicker than stock.

Have you replaced the rod bearings? Any issues with the 2010 model? What’s your mileage?
