So, again, shade tree or whatever you want to call that test that you
could do in the past, AFAIK you can still do it with the X5 today. Your
statement implies that it can't be done.


"From you previous posts I see that you are taking my advice about not fixing stuffs that breaks on your X"

No idea what that refers to or means.
Nope, my statement and explanation implies that this should only be done only as a test. It should not be considered a FIX or a work around to get back AC in the car without fixing the real problem.

Let See my statement was Fix it right or don't fix it.
You have a broken DISA valve that you know of, but didn't fix but still drive the X.
You have a broken Aux Fan that you know of, but didn't fix but still drive the X.

Glad I'm no longer in the market for a X. With owners that maintain cars like you I can see why there are so many noobs coming on this forum after purchasing a use X.
