Was told aux fan and compressor needed to be replaced! Anyone had the same experience? What could have caused them to break down this early? Where can I get these at a reasonable price? Dealer (Makati, Philippines) quotes PHP42,486 (USD 885) for the aux fan, PHP 86,441 (USD 1,800) for the compressor. Thanks.

Blue_Eagle,

I drive an 02 E53 X5 3.0d and had the same problem. I went to my BMW dealer and they found out that I had to replace my FSR ( final stage resistor) and auxilliary fan assembly. Get a second opinion from another stealership before you make your final decisio. Shoot me a pm so we can exchange info...
