6]transmission fluid change and filter[ no flush ]
7] I compounded[macquires ultra] and polish[I did it my self].
8]road force balance all wheels.
After last year which was filled with oil leaks, water pump,valley pan, brake lines and replace ,alternator oil seal,oil seal on other side, I figure it is worth it to invest the last bit and hopefully make it a good year.
I am sure somethings will come up but fingers crossed all will be good.

I got the car back from the shop after the tranny service ,wow what a difference , the x5 is like new , running smooth and shifting nice, I think the tranny is liking the flow of the fluid.
The old filter had a stamp from 2005 on it and the old fluid smelled like toxic crap...................Looking forward to driving her every day now.
