BUT, note that the kit linked in your post is for X5 2000-2003 (which is the M57D30) and doesn't mention the 2004-2006 (M57TUD30) models. That doesn't mean that the EGR is not an issue the later engines but maybe it's not such an issue, especially in our local environments (less extreme
I prefer to keep the engine stock and keep the EGR and inlet clean.
And the best way to do this is drive it lots (minimise cold running).
