Sunny, the fact that you can read the list which is still missing a few other things such as Water pooling in the rear trunk area, instrument cluster lights failing, I fail to rationalize your thoughts, I know people reading it must look like Im the angry guy who got the lemon... That could'nt be further from the truth, yes I've had my car a long time and it has a measly 160K miles on it, those of you think thats alot of miles, smoking some really good stuff please pass some down to me, so I can enjoy the view with you, lol! For a point of reference we also own a 1994 Mitsubishi Diamante LS and a 2000 Toyota Avalon, both with more miles than my BMW X5, and neither has had remotely the amount of little problems that the beemer has had no switches going out, not cluster going bad, no stereo getting fried, far less batteries than the X5 with the same amount of electronics, other than routine filter changes and a wheel bearing both of those cars combined have still had less basic issues than the X5, and mine is not a lemon..
Thats my point, many X5s are having the same issues, regular wear and tear or not, you pay a huge premium for a QUALITY built vehicle and I did as well, I can't help but feel a bit vexed when I look at all the little things failing with ONLY 160K miles

AGAIN 160K is NOT alot of miles, its sad that many of you think wow your car has only had that many problems with 160K miles..
