Buying and rescuing an X5

[ZAX5]

It is a sport box
When I got the car none of the lights worked on the gear shift indicator
The sport shift did not work either

I lifted up the cover, found all the wire disconnectes.
Connected them all and sports shift works now.

I agree with you, am very conservative regards pushing the box.
I dont want to have to fix that, the motor isnt so much of an issue to fix, but gearbox would be.

So have used sport mode shift a few times, but only up hills when I want a little more go.

This car is a weekend driver.
A toy to fix and drive weekends.

Daily driver is a E46 325. That is a lot of fun
