Fitment questions
Will a sump from an E60 M5 fit my F10 M5?
No – these are completely different generations with different engines: the E60 M5 (2005–2010) uses the S85 V10 engine, while the F10 M5 (2011–2016) uses the S63 twin-turbo V8, so their sumps are not interchangeable. Always match the sump to the engine code rather than the M5 badge. Confirm the exact engine code from your V5 or a VIN check before ordering from a breaker.
Does a sump from a 2013 F10 M5 fit a 2015 F10 M5?
Both the pre-facelift F10 M5 (2011–2014) and the facelifted F10 M5 (2014–2016) use the S63 V8 engine, so a sump from the same engine code should in principle be compatible across that facelift boundary. However, BMW did make running production changes during the F10 generation, so confirm with the breaker against your specific registration to be sure no ancillary or mounting differences apply to your car.
Is the sump from a standard F10 535i the same as the F10 M5 sump?
No – the M5 uses the S63 twin-turbo V8, while the 535i uses a completely different engine (typically the N55 inline-six), so the sumps are not interchangeable despite sharing the F10 body. The engine code is what determines sump fitment, not the generation or body. Always supply the engine code to the breaker when requesting a quote.
Will a sump from an E39 M5 fit my E60 M5?
No – the E39 M5 (1998–2003) uses the S62 V8 engine, while the E60 M5 (2005–2010) uses the entirely different S85 V10, so the sumps are specific to each engine and will not interchange. Match the sump to the engine code, not the M5 nameplate. Provide the engine code from your V5 or a VIN check when approaching a breaker.
Does the M5 Competition sump differ from the standard M5 sump on the F90 generation?
Trim level does not affect sump fitment – the F90 M5 (2018–present) and F90 M5 Competition both use the S63 V8 engine, so the sump itself is the same part. You may find cosmetic or ancillary differences elsewhere on a Competition-spec car, but for the sump the engine code is all that matters. Confirm the specific engine code with the breaker against your registration to ensure you're supplied the correct unit.
How do I make sure I order the right used sump for my BMW M5?
The engine code is the single most useful piece of information – it tells the breaker exactly which sump you need, far more reliably than the year or model name alone. You can find the engine code on your V5 logbook or by running a VIN check through a reputable UK service. Fuel type and gearbox type are also worth noting, and always confirm with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
