Thanks guys for your help.

SlickGT1 I have ordered the Voltage monitor like you said and should get it on friday since I could not find one here and will keep you posted.

My mechanic also pointed out to me this morning that I had to change the the two CV joints, Boots and Shaft for the front left drivers side and the front right also. When he drove the car we hear a clacking sound during turns, now my question is could this be the reason for the X5 problems. Is there any connection to the yellow 4x4, ABS, BRAKE, SERVICE ENGINE SOON lights and TRANS FAILSAFE PROG.!!!

Thanks again I really appreciate your assistance...
