Isnt the whole point of M5 ownership to actually use the car though?
@Wout I know the feeling M8,1 step forward and 2 back! Just focus on that moment that you first drive down the road knowing that all is well,and even better YOU made it that way!

Stay positive Wout .....you have dealt with some fundamental issues and are sure to have a well sorted car when this bout of spannering ends .

As Al has mentioned , hoses and ancillaries are the likely cause ...... and shouldn't cost much to put right !

Hang in there tiger !

Yeah its probably something obvious, as the puddle has developed in such short notice.

We'll see..

Thing is that the M5 is a big car to have laying around in the shop, and I have other cars to work on too..It all shifts further down the road..

But in the end,it'll all be worth it!
