    Hello All, I wanted to purchase rims for my existing tires. All 4 tires are replaced right before 5000 Kilometers. My rims are already in somewhat bad shape and causing a car to shake when being driven above 90km/h. How should I determine which Rim will be going to set on my car? I have 2007...

    So my E61 got delivered today, outside of the battery seeming weak when the transport driver started it and the plethora of system fault warnings that pop up when you start or drive the car. I’m in love with it, everything seems to work just fine outside of the key fob not wanting to work. Now...

  5. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    So,…I bought a 2006 530xi for what I thought was a steal…but I’m struggling to figure out why it won’t start. The car cranks fine, but doesn’t have any spark. I’ve checked all of the fuses in the glove box, in the trunk area, and around the ecu, but they all seem fine. Ive also scanned with a...

    Alright guys so after searching for aftermarket wheels I decided to go with the Niche Targa wheels. Personally I fell in love with my "reliable" car again. I went with staggered 19x9.5 rear, 19x8.5 front, with 35 mm offset. I would love to read your opinions and suggestions as where/what to do...

    I have an E60 with blade key instead of push to start. The screen also lists off as follows: Communication, Car Data, Entertainment, Climate. Is there a way to install Navigation on it through dvd? If not, is there a good retrofit CarPlay or nice CCC upgrade? 2006 BMW 530xi
  11. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    I recently purchased a 2007 530xi with 165k km on it, first thing I did was get the oil changed because I wasn’t sure exactly how to check the oil when I first purchased the vehicle due to there being no dipstick. Anyways, I got the shop to top off the car And as soon as I left the lot the I...
  12. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Hello all, I have already read basically everything that available about this problem but have yet to find someone who had the same problem as me. Since I have owned it, the tailgate on my '06 530xiT will resist opening and closing, making it very difficult to use. When I press the button on...

    :hi:I know there are quite a few threads already on this subject which may also be part of my problem on how the best way to go about removing the sunshades, recovering and then reinstalling them would be done since there are so many DIY's, video's and PDF's I think I have information overload...

    Hey everyone, I have loved this RPI axleback exhaust but am moving and selling the car this year so my RPI axleback exhaust is for sale. I don't have pictures yet as I am taking it off this weekend. But let me know if you are interested and I can send pictures. It lists for $889 on RPIs site...
  16. Parting Out
    I’m selling off the remaining parts from a Titan Silver wrecked 530i sedan that I bought to harvest parts for my own wagon. Many of these parts will fit a wagon. The car had less than 70k and was hit low in the front, it actually hit a tall curb and sheared off a good part of the front...
  17. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Hello everyone, I just recently got into BMW and cars in general. A lot of the questions I had before buying I found answers to on this site, so I thought I'd join! I bought and now currently drive a 2007 530xi with the M-Sport package. I bought the car off my buddy who'd done his best to...
  18. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Hie everyone, I'm new to this forum, my name is Alexis, and I drive a 2006 530XI. Today, I'd like your opinion on what wheels I should get for it. I know it should be my own decision, but a few opinions wouldn't hurt. So yeah... what wheels do you think would look good on my car? I don't have...
  19. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    I have a 2006 530xi and I was just wondering if there are any fairly cheap upgrades that I can do to get more power from my car. I don't have a lot of money to spend and definitely not enough to sell my car and get like a 535 or 335. I have the sports button which makes the car feel more nimble...
  20. F10 / F11 (2011 - 2016)
    i'm hoping to find out if the 19" oem rims from a '13 550xi would fit on my '07 530xi wagon.
