Garage find BMW E39 M5 reveals big problems
This video follows the delivery and first inspection of a garage find BMW E39 M5 after its journey from Sweden to Frankfurt, beginning the next stage of Project Skövde. The rare slick top M5 is lifted for a detailed underside check, revealing missing undercovers, alignment wear, valve cover oil leaks, original suspension parts, a stripped oil drain plug, and plastic debris in the oil pickup screen from aging S62 timing chain guides. The repair work begins with a permanent Helicoil fix for the damaged drain plug threads, followed by fresh 5W50 oil, new cabin and engine air filters, and diagnostic scans for servotronic and traction control issues. With rust treatment, suspension overhaul, wheel refinishing, headlight repair, interior detailing, and timing guide service ahead, this E39 M5 becomes a serious long-term restoration project.
