New to the forum

Just wanted to say hi. I have been searching for a while now for an X5 and finally found one I liked. Was looking at newer ones (07-08) but ended up liking this one the best after I could not find the latter ones with under 100,000 miles on it.

The one I got is a 2006 and has 65,000 miles on it and is in great shape. So far I have to replace one light bulb ($$) and the CEL is on for what appears to be fuel vapor related so I ordered a fuel cap as a first step. Overall I am happy with it and love the way it runs and drives!

Welcome! I've always loved that color on the X5. Great looking car and nearly no miles.

Looking good. 4.4i with sport pkg.
Read the CEL code to determine the exact cause. Don't go around and throw new part on it and hope that's the fix.
E53 > E70 (except E70M)

I put it on the scanner and found a P0442 "evap small leak" code. After using the search feature on this site I think I narrowed it down to a possible gas cap or under the hood sensor that controls it. Gas cap is cheapest so I am starting there lol.

Also, I have a headlight out which is the HID style d2s bulb and they are $$$!!
