X5goldie is on a distinguished road
Are the 4.4i ('05 to be specific) prone to valve stem seal leaks,
or are these mainly on the 4.6 and 4.8's that are more powerful? How about the coolant plastic pipe?

I checked out an 05 4.4 and didn't notice any smoke at idle after running it hard. It only has 98K miles.

Thanks for any input.
