I've noticed this too. Even my E32 7'er had to have my coolant reservoir and T-stat replaced twice in the five years I owned it. I'm not even going to go into the mess with the two E39's I owned. So far, my 2009 X5 has been good, except for the fact that the previous owner's shop put in a POS Indonesian made radiator, that sells for $89 on Ebay (and probably charged the owner for a BMW/Behr radiator). Nissens fixed that problem.
