With downsizing and electrification taking over, it\u2019s safe to assume it\u2019ll go down in history as the most powerful naturally aspirated engine the Bavarians ever put in a road car. The 5.0-liter unit was used by a small number of models: M5 E60, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/09\/05\/bmw-m5-touring-e61-top-speed-autobahn\/\">M5 E61<\/a>, M6 E63, and M6 E64. In addition, there were a few non-BMW models that used it, including the Weismann GT MF5.<\/p>\n<p>A new in-depth video puts the spotlight on the mighty V10, but this particular engine has seen better days. It was diagnosed as having problems with the rod bearings, which is a common issue with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2020\/08\/23\/bmw-s85-v10-engine\/\">S85<\/a>. Despite having more than a few technical issues, the ten-cylinder engine remains highly desirable given its ability to pump out 500 horsepower and 384 pound-feet (520 Newton-meters) without forced induction. Consequently, the functional parts are still worth saving.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-383280\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"The BMW S85 V10 engine 10 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of The BMW S85 V10 engine 10 830x554\"\/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-383280\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20554%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"The BMW S85 V10 engine 10 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/The-BMW-S85-V10-engine-10.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of The BMW S85 V10 engine 10 830x554\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Eric, the skilled technician behind the<em> I Do Cars<\/em> channel on <em>YouTube<\/em> got this engine after selling his S85B50 from a 2006 M5 he had for spare parts. The customer gave him back a nearly complete V10 that had been neglected over the years given its less than ideal current condition. The lack of maintenance is quite evident given how dirty the engine is on the inside.<\/p>\n<p>Since Eric is running a service shop and a salvage facility, it\u2019s safe to say he knows his way around the 5.0-liter unit, especially since this is not the first time he\u2019s dissecting the large NA powertrain. It\u2019s always mesmerizing to see a teardown video, especially when it\u2019s a one-off engine like the S85. Many components can be taken out and put into other engines since they\u2019re still in good condition and should be worth a decent amount of money.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oFOinwDfPqY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I Do Cars \/ YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content] ADVERTISEMENT A relatively short-lived engine, the S85 was used by BMW only between 2005 and 2010.
