Blessed Love! I have a 1996 e39 528i rhd 5hpzf18 with the trans fail safe indicator on, haven't scanned it yet but got the fluid changed. When it's in D I have no 1,2 & 3 gears, it goes directly to 4th gear. Reverse comes and goes.
Need help to fix Positive Battery Cable to turn off srs light. I got a 530i 2001, went to the dealership told me that the ohms was too low for battery safety terminal and they are asking about 1000$ to replace that cable. I was reading in some other post that he replaced the wire with a fuse of .25 A i believe.
Yep, the three batteries below are all mfg'd by Johnson Controls (just like the Optima), have specs good enough to run the e38/e39 BMW and can be found in most parts of the USA (the interstate can be found in Canada, too) and come with pretty good warranties as well ( 2yr free replacment/5 yr prorated). This video is a quick bit of help for E39 owners or technicians looking for solutions with the common no start issue regarding the EWS control unit and ignit I wouldn't unplug the battery while running. This car is super sensitive to current and voltage so that could fry something. Either with your tool or the obc check to see the voltage while running. Should be above 13.5, preferably 13.8+ if I recall. If not, check your voltage regulator before replacing the alternator.

Battery drain on 528i. 2064 Views 5 Replies 5 Participants Last post by The '97-'98 528i's have the M52 engine. In 1999 it changed to the m52-tu which added dual VANOS, DISA valve and other electronic changes. Trying to swap anything other than an M52 will cause more problems than it's worth. Gary. G.

Detailed specs and features for the Used 1997 BMW 5 Series 528i including dimensions, horsepower, engine, capacity, fuel economy, transmission, engine type, cylinders, drivetrain and more.

My BMW E39 528i transmission is in limp mode, stuck in 4th gear, fault light on dash, Scanned Trans ecu with 2 scan tools getting same code 2- P/N shift lock. I replaced the inhibiter switch on the side of the transmission with a good second hand one, this acheived nothing.
The weight options vary from 6 pounds to 25 pounds. Basically, the lighter the battery, the higher the cost (for quality). Of course, one should view weight as a percentage of the total weight of the car and/or the size of the engine. Shaving up to 40 pounds on a heavy car has less impact.
The wiring diagram for the BMW 528i includes several different elements. First, it includes a detailed diagram of all the wires, connectors, and components that make up the system. This includes the starter, alternator, battery, fuse box, door locks, air bags, and other components. Additionally, the wiring diagram also shows the connections
