New fluid and filter makes a world of difference I have found.

My X5 has 85 K miles total. From the fluid sample, it looked fairly ok.
Might have been changed at some point.
Either way, it's getting all new.
Since you are dropping the pan make sure to install the new sealing sleeve - Mechatronic part# 24347588725 as part of your service.
