RB what kind of consumption were you seeing? I currently go 1200 miles per quart of the normal 5W-30, but 2000 miles per quart in the summer when I run the "M" 10W-60. I'm due for another CCV service interval soon and may go ahead and swap out the dipstick tube even though I hadn't noticed any issues with them in Texas.
Maybe fellow Texans TiAgX5 and bcredliner have similar experience to yours?
2002 X5 3.0 290,000 miles
2004 325i 123,000 miles
