I think you might need to take the X in to a good indy mechanic and have them look at it. If you have had problems for years I'm not sure you have the ability to tackle it.

No offense intended, just an observation. I was having the same issues Andrew is following the posts for symptoms or clues as to what is going on. Swapping cam sensors (if same part number) is a great way to diagnose a bad cam sensor as a start. But you are going to need to read out cam angles, voltages, and other real time data to diagnose this particular issue. How many miles on the X5 currently? How many when problems started?

Shoot, I seem to recall problems with the electrical box on the right side of the engine bay causing issues for some (IVC? IVS? I forget the acronym). That sound familiar Andrew?
