BMW E39 M5 "Saving The Chassis" - PART 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 май 2022
- PART 1
Welcome to a new series of restoration work being carried out on this 2001 E39 M5.
It belongs to a Redish staff member - James P - our Service Manager who's been with us since 2017.
James P has owned this E39 M5 since 2014 and uses it as a daily along with his E90 M3.
In fact, James P has quite a cool collection of 4x M Power vehicles (the other 2 being E34 M5 LE's - one of which we're restoring and creating another upcoming YT series on).
James P was happy with the external body and paint on his M5 but could see some basic corrosion beginning to form around the Rear Sills & Rear Jacking Points.
So it was decided these would be tackled and we all hoped it would be surface corrosion that could be removed, treated, and protected.
WOW, were we in for a shock!
Not only did both Rear Jacking Points crumble away to reveal great big holes, but then he pulls out all the stops and instructs us to remove all the rear running gear and 'Save This Chassis' once and for all.

Brilliant work I wish all garages had your passion and attention to detail 👌
I love your videos about rust remove and development , keep on with that and high respect to your quality work
Best greeting from Bavaria
Glad you like them!
@@RedishMotorsportbmw when you do underside restoration what sort of wire brush you use to clean it all up.
Great video! I look forward to the coming videos as I have a E39 M5. Thank you for posting great content. Cheers from Canada…..:)
Thanks for your support!
"Oh Christ" 😂 that's the only time I've heard anything approaching a swear on your videos. I would be swearing left and right at that poor chassis. In fact, I had approximately that reaction when I realized the floor was totally rotted out on my girlfriend's X3, due to leaking vapor barriers on the rear doors for years.
Great video, excited for the progression.
LOL - good spot! Sorry to hear about the X3.
@@RedishMotorsportbmw Thanks, I welded in some sheet metal and a replacement diagonal cross bar under the left side rear floor made from angle iron. Not something I'm keen to share, lol. But at least the rockers and inner frame rails are still extremely solid. BMW overbuilt these things. I come from Subarus and this amount of rust would have been a death sentence for the chassis.
Thank you for this. I went to see an E39 the other day, outwardly it looked superb, looking at the sills told an identical story to this video. Thanks for highlighting this 👍👍
Excellent videos.... frightening level of corrosion and they say 90s mercs were bad. Subbed.👍👍
Excellent, excellent video - If only some owners realised the extent that corrosion can take hold, it wouldn't get to this stage and more of these cars would be on the road.
Looking forward to the rest of the series
Well its nice to know James gets excited when he squeezes two moist flaps
Trust you!
What has happened to part 2?......
Great video, looking forward to watching the progress 👍
Hope he gets a good bonus this year to pay for that 😁
Haha
Looks like A LOT of work to do!
Amazing to see so much rust 😯
Where is part 2?
I guess the throw the car away 😂
Im in medical school but i think id rather do what you guys do lol
Still need to get my E46 M3 done. I know it needs the RACP refurb but despite contacting can't get an appointment :(
She isn't used much but be great to get her booked in.
Sure, no worries. Email us on info at redish-motorsport . com and we'll make it happen. Thanks.
Is there a part 2 video?
Where is part2?
Would be interested to see the last MOT..
Would be interesting to see the last few MOTs.. that's had more than a few bent tests in its time
Part 2 ?
looks like that sealer has sealed all the damp in and accelerated the corrosion.
Great video. That excitement in your voice is passion for the brand. Now very worried about mine!! What is the wire with the plug hanging down from the boot floor next to the yellow shock absorber? Time index 18.08
Might be a temp sensor harness for the diff
Thank you! I think that's for the Rear Xenon Potentiometer.
@@chrisg4rr377 they don’t have that. I’ve never seen wires running to a diff.
Poor James P 😢
Does Redish work with customers who would be willing to ship their car from another country for work ,say Canada?
Hi Mike, thanks for the message. Yes we can do that. We have worked with many customers from Europe over the years (none from Canada / US yet so you could be with first)!
Email us on info at redish-motorsport dot com and we can discuss further.
Many thanks.
@@RedishMotorsportbmw Excellent ,I already talked to a sea freight company and shipping the car to the UK and back to Canada is really not that bad ,money wise. The nice thing is your City/town Bristol has a sea port and the car will arrive there in a container so it should be easy to retrieve. The car is a 2000 M5 with 140k kms with the dreaded front jacking point corrosion and some rust starting in other parts of the rocker panels. Honestly been wanting to send it to you for 2 years now so let me take care of shipping details and i'm thinking September or October she will go on her makeover holiday. Btw I will be the first!
Dear Mr Redish
Why don't you show us the actual work (removing rust, cutting, welding...etc.?)
it would make the videos more whole and more meaningful.
MOT tests by Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles it seems... 🧐
Very roughly, what sort of money is it to get this amount of corrosion sorted?
My thoughts exactly
