hello fellas, new to the site. i was on x5world a while back, seems like this is pretty much the same site. ive been lurking trying to gather as much info as i can for my next purchase, 09-10 48i msport. they seem pretty hard to find. im going on my 3rd week of shopping and every one within my budget and a 500mile radius has sold by the time i call on it. ive found a few but over 1000 miles away and i cant imaging buying a car without seeing it. past vehicles in order were 04 745, then i moved to snow and got 04 x5 4.4, bought a house had a baby so next an 07 tahoe. now im coming back to the darkside.

unbelievable how expensive these cars are now. i bought my 04 x5 for 53k brand new, now they are over 70k, geez

so im in the market for an 09 or maybe a 10 cpo for no more than 45k. i have read that the dvd changer on the 09s play movies in park or while driving if coded. can anyone comment on the video quality. this is a must for the wife to be a happy passenger on long trips. i have only test driven 3 x5s so far and it seems like the rattles are still around. my 04 had a ton... also 2 of the 3 msports i drove had a rattle coming from the driver side front, seems suspension related. is that a problem area on this model?

any info is appreciated. just need to find the right one so i can start the mods. great site btw
