It was time for new Bosch Evolution wiper blades today. Sad that nothing seems to last more than three months in the Texas sun.

I hear that. Though I do typically get at least a year out of wipers.

What did your X5 get for Christmas?
Mine stayed warm under its cover as the rain fell then tuned to ice as the temps fell. Meanwhile the minivan ran holiday errands and went on tacky light tours all weekend. See Holly's tacky lights for viewing tips in the Wash D.C. Area Hollys Tacky Christmas Lights in Fairfax County, Virginia

Holiday Maint.
Started the holiday maint sessions by removing the cabin air intake system, all the engine acoustic covers and the engine air intake system, to get at the engine breather (CCV) assembly.
Before removing the breather, I vacuumed up all the dead bugs etc. in and around the intake. You can see where the breather sits, towards the back of the engine. The old breather was the filter type - despite the listing at realoem indicating that the 2005 cars have the newer vortex type breather. It's well documented that this part was changed in the assembly line about August 2005 and my February 2005 build car backs that up, by having the old type part. It was shot... The old one is at the top, the new one below (as if you couldn't tell... ) Buttoning it all back up, I added a new air filter, since I had to remove the old one and getting at it is "tricky". The air filter in these 3.0d engines is HUGE! Not a difficult job - took about 90 minutes and that was taking my time. I can breather easier now - as can the engine - and not be quite so worried about cooking a turbo. Next up; oil change.
