New to X5 forum

Hi All,

I am a new member, we just got our car 1 week ago.

We decided to get the 3.0d from 2004 with some 65k km (39k miles) on it and we love it.

What experience do other members have with the 3.0d X5 which you would like to share with me?

More in general, how do you use the aux ventilation option?

Any ideas on how to keep the car in great condition outside the required maintenance?

Have a nice day!

Welcome PimX5.

If you want to know information about your car spend a few hours combing the forums with the search links. Most of the stuff you want will be in them. Also have a good read of your BMW X5 manual if you have it, it explains aux Ventilation. Good for hot days or cold ones (if aux heater is fitted).

Cheers mate,

Welcome PimX5

2004+ 3.0d engine is an excellent fit for the X5. If you want some wonderful extra kick without sacrificing reliability, performance or warranty issues, I highly recommend the "tunit" box.

Enjoy the X5 and this site !
