It's been quite a journey to get here but we're finally in a position to give the salvage F10 M5 a minor service and put some fire in it's belly! I've got new plugs, Liqui Moly molygen 5w40 oil and a new filter, BMW coolant, new MAF sensors and CHF-11S power steering fluid on hand.

As always, nothing is ever as simple as it should be, I had to buy new Oil Filter removal tool which slowed me down by a few days but we got there in the end. During the oil change I took a sample of the old oil and put it through a filter to see if there were any shavings in there. The oil looked old and dirty but was clean from any debris so fingers crossed we're good.

Working on the car in winter on a driveway is not pleasant, it's nearly freezing most days now and there's precious little sunlight available. To top that off we've had local flooding, Covid restrictions and a visit from Santa to slow me down.

But what a Xmas present it turned out to be, first start on the button was immediate and from what I can tell there's no knocking noises and the car went into gear too.

I've just got a few things to put back on and then we can start focusing on the cosmetics.

Happy days.

Thanks for watching
