Man, that makes me a proud E39 owner! Now, to find out why on Earth mine is not starting anymore!

Hopefully, I will have it back on the road soon! :blueCry::=):

A water pump wouldn't last 810 000km, it had to have been changed a few times.

Yeah I would imagine so. My car (75k km) has had one replaced...
