This video demonstrates how to retrofit a VANOS pressure accumulator to the BMW E39 M5's S62 engine. The pressure accumulator became standard on cars produced from 12/00. BMW pre-wired the engines from 7/00 production, making this job much easier. The car in the video is a 4/00 M5 that required a wiring retrofit as well.
