Thank you for the heads up on the durability info for the ZF. I’ve always wondered if they were reliable. It just the weight of these vehicles, it makes things work a bit harder, and hotter.
The X5 may be heavier, but I suspect that 600-1,000 at the wheels more than offsets the weight.

As I understand it, the weak point is that you start breaking third gear.
