I should have told you guys i have an 3.0i...but anyways, I read that some people's Xs die while they are driving it due to this problem. And was wondering if it would be too much to drive it to the garage.

Have you considered just replacing it yourself? I have a pre-VANOS intake manifold sitting in my garage, I can take pics if you need to give you some guidance on how to remove this item yourself. I'm sure there are also some write-ups on www.e38.org, but if you'd like actual realtime help, I can assist you.
I did think about doing it myself, but really do not have enough free time nor do i really trust myself to not screw it up. I have an indy guy who is dedicated to bimmers and who has told me he can do it for about $300US but I really think maybe about $500US is more realistic.
