I just traded in a 2005 X5 3.0 for a 2008 X5 3.0. On the 2008 you have to push the throttle halfway or full throttle to get moving. It seems like the shift points are wrong. A friend has a 2008 550i and it is the same way. My 2005 had much better throttle response and shift patterns. What & why did BMW change?? Thanks
