Buying Tips for the 1986 BMW 5 Series (E39)
- Inspect the jacking points, sills, and boot lid for severe rust, which is the main killer of UK E39s.
- Check the entire cooling system (radiator, water pump, expansion tank); the plastics become brittle and will suddenly shatter.
- Listen for knocking from the complex multi-link front suspension, indicating worn thrust arm bushes (the 'E39 shimmy' under braking).
- Ensure the instrument cluster pixels are fully readable, as they almost universally fade or drop out entirely.
- Check the M52/M54 straight-six engines for high oil consumption and leaks around the rocker cover gasket.
