Hi - Also have a very slow to start X5, poss 5-6 revolutions before it leaps into life. I have done a amp draw test and I its pulling will over 450, not the recommended 180. I will get a new starter and fit it.

Can I ask, I know that BMW upgraded the starter in 2005. I believe they went from Denso to Bosch? Is this correct? I am based out of London so I will go to EuroCarParts for a new starter.
