Hi all, I just picked up a 2006 E60 M5 in Silverstone with 30k miles and SMG.
I live in Miami and came from the world of Saabs, I had a 9-3 Aero with a V6 Turbo.
Anyway, that forum was great and it looks like this one is too. I have a couple of questions.
I've searched and found a ton of answers to questions I had. I no longer drive the car in "D" since it pretty much sucks like that.
1. Carbon Filters...are they worth removing or just mental power?
2. My roundel on the steering wheel is dented and the dealer wouldn't fix it. Is it replaceable?
3. I had my DRLs deactivated at the dealer and want to get the bright whites for the angel eyes. Is there adifference in Angel iBrights vs. Umnitza? Has anyone bought the $70 ones on ebay and had good results?
4. My brakes are pretty loud braking from 35-0. Not squeaky - just loud braking noise. Does anyone else have that? Is it normal for this car since the calipers and rotors are so big?
That's a pretty good start for now, I'll post some pics below:
