1986 BMW 5 Series 535i review from North America

"It is a excellent car, must drive one for yourself to see"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I had a problem with the rough idle and I fixed it with, putting in new injectors, which was very expensive.

I replace all the front end componet's, which cost me about a $1,000 dollars.

Had to replace the fuse box dew to a bad gasket which aloud water to get in the box.

General comments?

U can work on the car yourself, but I would recommend that you take it to a dealer to have major work done on this car. This will prevent you from getting lost in the mass confusion of wiring.

Love this car I drive it everyday I have people offer me money for all the time, but I tell them I love the little car to much to sell it.
