Pulleys, belts replaced and added the old set to the stack of "emergency" parts as I call them or as my wife says the hoarders pile.

Not my X5, but helped a friend with his new to him '04 4.4i. Changed all the coolant hoses, coolant, new brake fluid, oil change, fixed the power folding mirrors and put a new battery in.
Looks practically brand new, it only has 73k on it.

DIY Video: E53 X5 Rain Sensor Gel Pad Repair
How to replace the gel pad beneath the rain sensor in a BMW E53 X5. This should also work for E39, E46, and other similar generation BMW. The automatic windshield wiper's stop working when the gel pad bubbles up and the rain sensor cannot get an accurate reading. The bubbling is possibly caused by years of exposure to the sun. Easy repair, minimal skill and tools required. Can be done in less than an hour and restores a very useful feature. New OEM BMW Rain Sensor Gel Pad - $15 Plastic Pry Tools - $10

well I think something either got loose of got trapped in the fan behind the radiator, since it self destructed a few hundred meters after driving away from work yesterday. Complete fanshroud and all the fafblades are missing and are in little bits in the engine bay. The debris punctured the radiator in two spots as far as i can see.There was even a piece of plastic stuck in the hood lining.
Has anyone ever experienced this? The mechanic that took a look thought it might have been a sensor that got caught in the blades, seems like a design flaw? it's unlikely anything can fly in there from the road, road was clear when it happened. (sounded like I hit a big branch)
