That is truly awesome! I hope to get to 200K, yet to hit 100K, but no problems with anything (knocking on wood) and love the X!

Congrats!

WOW !!! 480.000 km. Very welldone. Makes me hope
Main problem here in Austria is that they salt the roads very heavy over the winter.
This might kill her before mechanical problems come up.

Take care!

Very awesome!

Although it would not apply to me, I am curious to the results of a cylinder compression check.

Keep on truckin!

I'd love to know how its still on its original transmission. After having owned many BMWs and now needing a car that can tow I have been considering an early X5. The only thing that worries me is that most seem to need transmissions in the 80-120k mile range which would mean almost any that fit into my budget would be susceptible.

When did you do the partial trans service? Is your driving mostly long highway trips? Congrats and thanks!

I did the partial trans flush at around 188,000 miles. My driving is a split between highway and city. I drive around 100-300 miles per business day. Sometimes its all day in Seattle and other days out on Whidbey Island, or Vancouver BC. Its kinda all over the place. I consider my self very fortunate with this transmission. I can say one thing, when I drive my X I make it give all its got! After all it's only a 3.0 and I really wish it was a 4.8.
