i-Drive failures, battery warnings, poor A/C, multiple, various and very frequent warning lights, absurdly poor gas mileage, door locks malfunctioning, auto tailgate randomly stops working, reverse camera is a total joke, no heat reflecting glass, radio/satellite pre-set buttons erase themselves, or re-set to random stations I have never used, date/time erases itself.....
I have spoken with A LOT of new X5 owners, and I know that I am not alone in believing that BMW and the X5 should not score top honors. Sorry.

I am now on my 3rd X5 and have NEVER had a problem with any of the vehicles and I have racked 100,000's kms
I would suggest that if you are that disgruntled and unhappy - sell it and move on, I wouldn't want to be driving around in a vehicle I was that unhappy with.
