Lol, we know it's an E53; it's an E53 forum. When members ask for year, mileage, and type, we need to know of certain details. Such as if you had a 2006 X5 4.4 and had a bad VPG, but you never specified your year, we could be giving you information for the wrong engine.

Such as with your problem now, Slick and I are just throwing a bunch of ideas at the wall right now because we don't know if you have a 3.0i or a 4.4i or a 4.6is. These are all very different.

So, so far we know you have a 2002 with approx 150k km.

Now do you have a 3.0 or a 4.4 or a 4.6? Let us know.
