This weekend was a loss but hope to take Thursday off to get started with the AT.
Good luck. If you get the tools I'd be interested in getting them after you are done.

TriX, do the chain guides now if you never done it since you have the tranny out. It's easy to take the engine out now and work on it on a stand. You might want to change the seals as well. I found this chain guides problem a while back on the e39 forum and posted here but nobody replied. So, I guess at that time no X5 ran into this issue but now it looks like it's a common problem to X5s as well.
I am also replacing all the rubber and plastic pipes and hoses around the engine. Good luck with your tranny, that's a harder project I guess.
Not sure I will buy the tools but I will let you know if I do.
