E39 M5

There are for Cam angle sensors.  When were those changed?  If they are old it's very possible 1 or more are bad.  Unless you know they were recently changed, change all 4.

I don't know when the cam sensors were changed. It threw a code yesterday, I'll borrow my coworkers reader tonight and see what it is. I pulled the plugs last night and they looked okay, none of them looked really black or wet.

When mine went I was getting misfire codes and other odd codes, not cam angle sensor fail.  Replaced them and the codes went away.  Not saying it is forsure that, just sounds like it.

How about your MAFs?  Those like to wear out as well.

[TehRaydarlover]

Yeah, it's entirely possible the cam sensors are bad. I'm hoping I get a misfire code tonight telling me at least what side to look at. Then maybe swap cam sensor/maf and see if the problem follows.

[TehRaydarlover]

Cam position sensor fixed the misfire but now it's throwing all sorts of new codes lol. I'm thinking it's vanos related on bank 1, probably the solenoids. Anyway I got to drive it around briefly last weekend. Blew a tire then put on some new pilot super sports. This car is a beast haha. 

P.S. There was no handicap sign and the paint was really faded, honest mistake lol.

Great! So is this the new summer daily?

So...when do we get burnout videos?

[TehRaydarlover]

Yep new summer daily. I was told doing a burnout is part of the recommended tire break-in procedure? 

...also, I just bought an e46 M3 that needs a new engine, options? I'm thinking I'm just going to put a new engine in it and try to flip it but it would make for a fun |<. <|  |>.>| racecar. I don't have any pictures but it's stock and black, you get the idea:

[Rekpoint]

Wow! I'm surprised you didn't pick up the E46 m3 with the Cinnamon interior with a blown motor in Chicago

Hmm, didn't even know of one in chicago... looks like I bought this one before the one in Chicago was FS. I think I'm happy with mine though, cheaper, clean title, not torn apart, buuuut SMG and no engine haha.
