Im happy to say the 77 530i is running smooth.

So you replaced both sensors = fix ?

Coolant. I think #17 is a 1-way check valve (?)

Same thing on my 79.......I think it's a loose window guide

The center support bearings often need shims on the mounts to keep things level/plumb ...... you probably know that.......

Plan C. Cut a slot with a dremel tool/disc. Then work at it with a slot head screwdriver.

Are you getting good pump circulation ? Check the reservoir for a strong current. Also the coolant -ways in the block tend to get crusty.....

2nd-ing the question. My 79 has rear seized calipers.

Check / lube the bushings #4 in picture on the engine side of the firewall. From there check and lube all of the linkage points to the engine. Inside where the arm connects to the pedal hole can get crusty too. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=3975&mospid=47164&btnr=35_0102&...

Not sure exactly but plan on cutting to make room for the magnet(s) on any decent speakers.

Double check the MickeyMouse designed wire with contact clip behind the brake lever pivot point.

Often it's more like a squeal ......but:
