Haven't had e53 since a deer killed mine late '21 but i made a good #of helpful guides abs still monitor e53 forum when i have time. I now own e70 which doesn't "double lock" which is terrible for theft prevention but reduces the risk of getting trapped in a car if the double lock malfunctioned.

The gas tank is much smarter on e53: very reliable gauge and you can use the last gallon of gas even on hills.

If the video is still live you can watch after i put the DLA back in my wife's car how the first button press spins the disable motor and the second button press spins the actual unlock motor.

They must have completely redone the DLA on e70 and the siphon jet pump as I've not seen any issues on the e70 forum for either of those or the door handle carrier.

My e70 turned 200 kmi last year and I have to believe the main fuel pump was replaced before i bought (mtbf is usually about 133 kmi). But I've not had to deal with siphon jet or any door lock or handle.
