Any other general E39 forums for non M5 / Alpina problems?

Can anyone recommend any other forums for info on the general nuts and bolts of the E39, i.e. non M5 / Alpina applicable problems?
Just useful to see what problems are encountered by the other E39 model variants and other useful sources of information.

Thanks in advance

Jim

www.bimmer.org is a decent site but has a lot of trolls and not so knowledgable people on it. That being said, there is some very good info to be had over there. Hope this helps.

I am a member over at www.bimmerforums.com We have a very active 5 Series forum there.

Wow, just realized the date on this post. This must not be a very active forum area to have something this old on the first page.. Sorry 'bout that.
