NMNA That works out to $7.00 per M(sport) horsepower.

BMW 540 M Sport for sale/trade - $2000 (Rome, GA)

have a 1999 BMW 540i M Sport package Sport Auto with manual overide transmission, 285hp. Exterior I rate to be a 8 out of 10 and interior I rate to be a 6 out of 10. Silver with Grey leather. V8, auto with manual sport override lots of power very fast. Power everything, six disc changer and sun roof. Comes with BMW OEM Roof rack and two bike carriers. The Bimmer has 205,000 miles, mostly hwy, I dove the car back and forth to Atlanta for 3 years 6 days a week when I worked with the filming industry. I have a carfax from when I purchased it, never been in a wreck and a clean title. Long story short, car ran great and I bought a dodge magnum SRT-8 and parked the bimmer middle of June. Car did have a check engine light on when it was parked. Tried to crank it up a few days ago and it has developed a gremlin. Car will not turn over, rear lights are on, no power to the ac or radio. This would make a great parts car or project. SELLING AS IS, WHERE IS. You will need to tow unless you know bmw magic.

How much do you want to bet that it only needs a relay, battery or possibly just a battery jump to drive away?

Assuming it's like the M5, you cannot jump them with a dead battery. Seriously, it's massive and just eats up anything you give it. But I agree, it's probably just short on juice.

Yep... sure does sound like low-voltage symptoms. Bring a new battery, give the guy the money, pull out new battery "you just happened to have...", install, fire up and drive away...
