I replaced both belts at the same time, got them from Repco, the local dealer did not have them in stock would you believe?
Man, what a job to replace the air con consenser fan assy though! The pulley was easy to C/O. Still I know a lot more about my X5 now.

Great to hear you're fixed up..

I did the Condensor fan about 6 months ago.. It is much more difficult that the non diesel versions, like 10 extra steps.. took me 4 hours to get to it, about 30 minutes to put everything back.

You certainly do learn alot about the X5 when you do your own jobs.
