Service List Review Request
I'm preparing to send my X5 in for service. Below is the list and I would really appreciate any comments. Are the items clearly written? Do they make sense? Anything to add? Are they covered by CPO? Thanks!
2005 X5 4.4, 33K mi (CPO) 1. Exhaust Flutter Loud fluttering noise while accelerating (ref. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdYfio0xVkU). To hear it clearly, test drive with rear hatch open. Possible problem with the muffler. 2. High Pitch Whistle There is a high pitch whistling noise coming from the engine compartment while cruising along. The noise seems to be transmitting through the vent because it's not audible when the fan is off. Possible cause: a leak in the intake -or- evaporator drain tubes contacting driveshaft and transmit noise (ref. http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/15435-high-pitched-whistle-when-you-accelerate-i-found-where-mine-coming.html?highlight=whistle and http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/36372-picked-up-used-x5-whistles.html). 3. Rough Idle At idle, the vehicle vibrates quite strongly. Sometimes steady, sometimes pulsating. It's almost like sitting in a massage chair. It idles at around 500 RPM. Is that too low? 4. Cupholder Prongs A couple of cupholder plastic prongs/springs in the center console are missing. 5. Squeaky Driver Seat Squeaky noise coming from under the driver seat when entering and exiting the vehicle. The squeak is also audible when the vehicle is turning. I was going to lube it but after looking under the seat, I opted not to because there are so many exposed components (motors, etc.) 6. Steering Wheel Plastic Chipping Black paint is coming off exposing white plastic. 7. Rear Hatch Struts The rear hatch seems to shut too hard. I thought it supposed to close softly. Isn't that what the motorized latch is for? 8. Bluetooth Keycode Bluetooth keycode was not provided by the dealer. Please check and provide keycode. 9. Alarm Chirp Please disable the audible chirp when alarm is armed. Light indicator is sufficient. 10. Software Updates Please check to see if my vehicle needs software updates. |
