am at 111k, been lucky so far - caught the CV boots the day after they started to leak, so the axles were still good - tranny still good - brakes & rotors done at 91k - replaced door seals and driver's body door seal as it was cracked - big $$$ cost was valve gaskets and valve cover gaskets replacement when spark plugs showed oil, very labor intensive - need to replace driver seat leather, the rest still looks good - most of the lights winked out at 51-53k, so when they started again at 104k, I replaced the lot - I figure the water pump is due to be replaced sometime after 120k (1st done at 61k) - the 100k tuneup included fuel pump replacement

besides regular maintenance, my X5 gets a good "look-see" twice a year just before my cross country trip SC-ID in May & ID-SC in Sept - much less expensive to fix it in the shop than out on the road

Best of luck with yours
