2 X's? Wow, how do you guys keep up with the repairs? Seems like it would be a full time job with 2 X's.

I purchased my '04 3.0 new and have not had the issues most people report happening to them. I always keep up with maintenance and change oil more often than suggested by the manufacture. I recently replaced my expansion tank but at 111k miles I don't think that was anything significant. I have been driving my '06 4.8is for about two weeks and it is perfect too. The 4.8is has 50k on it but I'll do it's regular maintenance and hope it's as reliable as the 3.0. I purchased as a one owner vehicle from BMW of Tulsa and have verified maintenance as being completed at it's expected intervals at the same dealership since new.

I will never understand comments like this>>>? This is my second X and have never had an issue! I love my X's and will continue to purchase them as long as I can in the E53 version.

I know too make people that have the E70 and have so many problems, I am staying clear. That reminds me of my experience with Rovers, 1st 7 months 16 times in the shop!

Knock on wood, I love mine!
