For Sale: 1998 BMW 5 Series in Aiken, South Carolina for sale in Aiken, SC
Vehicle Description A sad story on this 540I 6 speed manual BMW which is NOT RUNNING.
This vehicle was a trade-in from our photographer.
He bought it in May of 2022 with 158,536 miles.
New tires Michelin tires were installed, mufflers, and a major service (about $6,000 still waiting on the receipt) at BMW of Augusta, GA.
Another shop here locally did some additional maintenance.
He told BMW to do all the maintenance it needed to keep the car on road for many years to come.
Part of that service was not the timing chain guides.
When he was on a road trip the 540i broke down and was then towed to our facility.
We got the engine to turn over but heard noise leading us to believe the timing chain guides failed.
We have not looked into the issues any further and will not be.
Another complete 540I engine is available for an additional amount which the buyer can hear running.
Contact us for more information.
The pictures are from 2022 when he purchased the BMW as the vehicle is currently stationary in our parking lot.
So it has another year and 10,000 miles of driving since those pictures are taken.
We can share a walk around video in it's current location.
The M Parallel wheels and Michelin tires are not included with the sale price and vehicle will come with a roller set of wheels and tires.
