2001 E39 BMW 530i, produced in 2003, in-line 6-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, first-generation god engine, the purchase price of that year can buy a house
Originally, my goal was to find an electronic E60 made in 2008-2010, which is the Hawkeye generation 5 series. When a friend comes across a car, he misses it if fate is not enough. My friend works in a used car. That day, he saw a 2003 E39530i that was about to be transferred, so he sent it to me. At the same time, he looked at the engine compartment for me and found that the car was in good condition. After the test drive, the engine and gearbox were smooth and powerful. So I went there immediately after work and paid a deposit that night. After that, ask him to help me transfer ownership and clean and polish the exterior and interior decoration. Go get the car today, it’s shiny!

After fine washing, it will be very clean.

The interior is still taken before washing, and it’s still clean.

10 to seat adjustment

It was also taken before fine washing, and the 20-year car is in good shape.

As soon as I got the car, I went to refuel. As a result, I couldn’t light the fire after filling the gas, so I had to ask the master to come and help me build the battery.

It will light up a little after the electricity is turned on. Hurry up to change the battery and do maintenance. The 6-cylinder power of 3. 0 on the road is really leveraged, 300nm torque, power on call, if you want to exceed.

This is an old battery, 80A, come and change it quickly.

Changed to a 90A.

Then drive to Tuhu to change the tire and maintain it. This tire is actually from 2009.

The 2009 tire has been 14 years old, and it will crack as soon as it is peeled. It is very dangerous not to change it.

Because the local warehouse has spot, changed the two tyres of Luddstone, the shop assistant introduced this is Nixon’s high-end brand, the so-called high-end is actually the better quality of civilian products. The price is affordable, 429 yuan a piece.

The production date is the 49th week of 22 years, which is very new. It is found that Tuhu’s offline tires are newer than online, and online bookings are generally made six months ago, and the previous purchase of Pirelli P1 was actually a year ago.

Originally saw that the spark plug here is cheap, only 25 yuan (NGK) ordered six, thought that the old car must not be changed for a long time, as a result, open the cover to find that the ignition coil is very new, and then take out the spark plug (NGK) should take a short time, and it is 4-pole ignition, and I ordered a unipolar, I did not understand this before, did not pay attention to read, 4-pole 55 yuan each (Bosch), but not expensive. Save money, call customer service and return it directly. In addition, the air conditioner filter element is also very new, forget to take pictures, and save money. E39 has two air conditioner filter elements, both in the engine compartment.

In fact, this oil filter element model is wrong, because the app can not find 2001 530i, only 2003 overseas version, sure enough, the specific accessories are not the same. The shop assistant asked and went to the auto parts market to transfer goods. He had to wait for an hour, so that he could change the tire in front of him, co-ordinate the use of time, and not waste time.

Zhengzhu is coming, or made in germany, not expensive, only 70-something.

It can be said that the filter element of the original factory, the texture is very good.

This is where the machine oil filter element is put, and the metal machinery is very fine.

Put in the oil. There is a slight oil leakage in the oil pan. Fortunately, the shop assistant helped me to clean the oil pan very sweetly.

This is half-washed and greasy before cleaning. German cars are famous for burning engine oil. Netizens say that E39 sometimes burns a liter for 2000 kilometers. Check the oil dipstick after driving 1000 kilometers.

Unexpectedly, the brakes and pads of the four wheels are relatively new, which saves me money again.

The color is very good.

In addition to the broken rubber cover, the shock absorber is also very new. it is really an excellent car.

The chassis is very strong.

20 years old car, this kind of chassis is really the best.

The whole chassis is very clean.

The whole car is imported from Germany. This should be in German.

Wipe the mud a little and it’s all shiny inside.

Chassis panoramic view, very good!

The official claimed that the oil capacity of this engine is 6.5 liters, bought 2 barrels of 4 liters, unexpectedly added more than 7 liters, the shop assistant said that a little more is fine, not to mention burning oil. My Tuan only adds 4 liters.

It’s done. The cabin is so neat and clean, the 20-year-old car has no sludge.

The paint sheet metal is almost the original factory, after polishing the look and feel is very good, the paint has also been measured by the measuring instrument, uniform and not thick, the meaning of the original factory.

The two rear wheels are 21 years old and are still very new. You don’t have to change them.

The side is very handsome, many netizens say that the angle of E39 is very beautiful, I also think so.

The headlights are still on.

Attached key authentication, the remote control is broken, may be out of power, then go to repair it

Thanks to my good brother for helping me find a good car and helping me a lot. The maintenance of this car is very good. After checking the maintenance records of the 4S store in the past 20 years, there are 50 pages. It is undeniable that there are many minor problems with German cars, but the machinery is absolutely first-class. There are a lot of repairs, but they are basically minor problems, and the ones that have been changed have been changed. I was very lucky to receive this car, which was not only by accident, but also by fate. The car is very powerful to drive, with 6 cylinders of 300Nm and more than 2000 revolutions on call. Next, solve the ABS fault light and change the ABS sensor. Other mechanical parts basically do not need to be changed, the most is the gearbox oil and brake oil to have a look, timing belt and other alarm before changing, should also be changed before, after all, more than 200,000 kilometers. Thank you for watching, please moderator to give an essence of it, the code word is not easy, today’s fresh car is written on it!
