    French Newbie 528i e39 jap

    Hello everyone.
    My name is Christophe.
    I'm french and i'm 31.
    I'm in DSO since 2 years now. Get my ride this year. Pretty happy with it. Family car for my wife, my 10 months son and myself. Got some work done on it already like radiator replacement and some minor fixes (minor leaking) also fixed the inside (thanks to the mighty cupholders and the GCC sun who unglued some of the inside fabrics). Still some work to do:
    -windshield trim is completly dry and crackled
    -windshield itself have a scratch due to bad wipers
    -low condition on the front bumper (need to be fixed or replaced) due to parking concret stoppers (car is too low to passed them)
    -Actuator on the rear right door is stucked sometime (classic problem on e39)
    -some minor scratch on the outside

    I hope i'm gonna find good tips and help here, thanks to you

    Note: as AGMC didn't want to take a look at my car, i'm giving my ride to Munich motorwork and had been pretty happy about prices and service so far.

    See you all
    Bye

    Minor issues on the E39, I'm sure our sponsor [MENTION=395]shak[/MENTION] will be able to sort it out. Octane is one the most reputable workshops in Dubai.

      Welcome to the Club!

      Very nice car. Is it a manual?

        No. Automatic. But there is a sequential shift. I would have prefered a manual as i've always had but as dubai highways are pretty straight forward that's OK. Even if it is the most "fragile" piece on this 120000km car.
        And thanks to rafik .I might have a look at this octane garage and have a quote for some stuffs as it is really near to the one I normally go...
