This 2008 X5 3.0 is my 2nd X5. The first one is 2001 X5 3.0, first year model and September production line; a lesson learned. Compare 2008 X5 with my 2001 X5, I am very happy. The slow start from complete stop problem is gone after 5 weeks of "training & learning".
Other than tire replacement, my BMW center has been very good on everything else. I have been very satisfied with BMW warranty service.
