Is it really because of low mileage? Or is it because of not having too many long range trips? For me, the main reason is because, I had a bad experience with the V8 X5, and whenever I search on you tube for X5 problems, it's mostly related to the V8 petrol. I love the X5 but I wasn't very lucky with my petrol V8
