Weird stalling Issue? Transmission?

205k miles 50% farther than I'd expect a CPS to keep running. Maybe the second one.

Update. Just changed the CPS and clear fault codes. Everything seems back to normal, better throttle response, no stalling hopefully fuel mileage will improve.

Vancouver BC. Not that cold here, around +low single digits. Did notice my x5 doesn’t get warmed up after driving around for a bit. Needle only goes 1/4 to 1/3 not even close to straight up after city driving for 30-45min. Maybe a stuck open thermostat

You for sure have open thermostat. The dial on the dash is not a thermometer it only effectively has three positions.

1. Not warmed up
2. Quite possibly warmed up
3. Stop the engine immediately.

If the needle doesn't get to the "noon" position within 8 min. of driving either the t-stat is stuck open or the sensor is reading wrong
