for the 3.0 its 30 nm +/-3. check the TIS. Torque on spark plugs is very crucial imo.

wow, you say brake job is a 3! yikes, i wouldn't even dare to touch the brakes. that to me is super important and i need someone who knows what they're doing in order for me to trust them with my wife and child in the X5. brake job to me is like a 7 or so...maybe because I've never done a DIY

hello bimmer360! another fellow kababayan! i go SF twice a year to visit my younger bro, aunts and uncles there. i will try to look you up next time. although, i never take the X5 that far. I usually use my Lexus GX470 because its more comfortable for my wife and 17 month old child.

I agree with the brake job being a 3. The Bentley sevice manual suggest torq specs of 23 +-3Nm 18+-2ft-lbs. for the spark plugs to cylinder head
