Mine is now garaged for a few weeks while my wife is out of town. And it's cold outside - it may be summer here but it's cold!! No snow though.... although I'm not holding my breath... the world's weather has gone mad!
Kinda nice have the X5 under cover after 10 years of being "out in the cold". :-)

Damn it! Came out to frozen doors and broke the right door handle carrier trying to get in. Ended up going through the rear hatch.

Mine has been inside during our Texas winter days. Aluminum valve cover is ready for use. I'll start driving it daily tomorrow. I've missed them seat warmers!
Does WD40 work on latches to keep them from freezing?

I forget what year it was but a few years ago I was down there for a little golf vacation. Myrtle Beach area. Right around Martin Luther King Day. And there was like 5 in of snow and ice storm. I went to have a golf vacation and instead I was scraping ice off of car windows. And then canceled flights etc.
I'm south of lake Erie, we've been getting 2" of snow every single night for almost 2 weeks. Today was at least warm enough to rinse the salt off. I don't bother with the door locks. The driver door is barely operational. Any day now I will get to figure out how to get in the car from another door. The rear hatch struts are failing, only when cold. I've gotten bonked in the head twice. The windows are also getting frozen shut. That's probably how the regulators get broken.
