Very nice ride. I also think you should not get the Mtech bumpers as the car looks quite unique at the moment. The rims go nicely with the exclusive bumpers.

Kaka, if you have not heard about this already, have your inlet manifold checked for condition of swirl flaps (if fitted). My 2004 330D Steptronic ingested 2 at 80,000 km. Forsdicks Tygervalley quoted R 157,000 for a rebuilt engine - more than car cost in Feb 2011.

Wow!
Some lovely 5's you've had! Really are stunning cars.

Bangle did a good job


Yeah!
I really loved the aggressiveness of the E60 sports packs!!
They look amazing and if you find a neat example they honestly haven't aged near as much as other models!!

You one lucky Oke ............... a real BMW whore :praise:

Your advise as you have owned quite a bit of 5's and a 7

545i to the 550i

760i to the 550i

and all compared to the M5. Im making reference to the whole lifecycle - driving, ownership, headaches etc.

Guys I need some advice?
What's your take on putting down pipes and decatting the 330d??
Is it worth it? Are there noticeable gains?
Anything to be scared of?
Car has 75000km!

Downpipe helps the turbo run at lower temps and improves spool so a gain in response/power. The Decat will help if done by someone that knows diesels. Also removing the resctriction in the line does help No need to change the whole line out
