$2300

Water pump, some cooling/ oil hoses and a window regulator, A/C buttons replaced

2001 X5 4.4i 90K miles.

Owned the car 6 months and has put about 4K miles on it.

If I could do it all over again, I'd run away from this car... To bad I paid cash, I'd probably walk from it I hate it so bad...

From quick memory, I think my total out of pocket expenses for
repairs/maintenance have been less than $1000 over its 7 1/2 yr
life.
