    That's what I mean, it wouldn't pull to the end of the rpms when it wouldn't accept dyno mode.
    Still quick enough for me!

    Fairly damn respectable for a nearly 15 year old motor on 95RON, Christ it's lost none of it's ponies by the looks of it.
    The legendary S62. Goes to show if they're minded, they deliver.

    Yeah I'm quite happy. It definitely felt sharper after I changed all fluids, and filters, fitted new plugs, cleaned the MAFs and ran a couple of bottles of BG 44K through it.

    Fellow M5 owners, could one of you show me how your battery is clamped in place please?

    Mine is retained by the foam section that sits on top and fixed by the cover as shown

    I've no foam, but I did have the lid. So there's no metal strap holding it in? I'm surprised.

    Look down the sides, there might be a 10 or 13 holding a small bracket against the battery.

    No strap, can't see where it would anchor if it did have one, it's very snug with the foam.
