We are looking to get a new X5 as our current '01 3.0 liter is getting up there in age and mileage (180k miles). I know that I like the 3.0 engine but I have always heard good things about the diesels but I know very little about them. I dont want a V8 because of their higher price tag.

Can anyone list the pros and cons of the 3.0 liter v.s. the Diesel? Thanks for any help.
