Today's teardown has been requested since the VERY beginning but these can be tough cores to find. I sold my GOOD V10 from my 2006 M5 parts car and I was able to get the customers old core back!
My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage facility in hazelwood MO. Part of our model is selling parts from blown up or bad engines. All of the parts from the engines I tear down on this channel are thoroughly cleaned, inspected and resold when usable.
BMW's S85 V10 is the most powerful naturally aspirated BMW engine ever, making over 500hp! This comes as a cost as these can be extremely expensive to maintain properly. They are MORE expensive to neglect.
This core tells a story of lack of maintenance, perhaps the dirtiest and neglected S85 I've seen yet though I haven't had too many come through the shop.

As always, I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
Catch you on the next one!
Eric
