BMW seem to have produced an engine so complex with so many warning shutdown systems on it that they are incapable of diagnosing and fixing the actual issue. Much as I love the X5 M the most important factors for me are safety and reliability, my car fails on both counts.

Mine is going back in today but they already admit they don't know what to do next if the fault codes are the same (which we expect).

There is no Lemon Law here like you folks in the US have but we do have what's called the Sale of Goods Act, this clearly states that a fault must be rectified in a reasonable time, be a lasting repair or the car must be replaced. BMW are rapidly running out of reasonable time.
