What is the mileage of your X5?

[ALPINE_X5]

2002 X5 4.4i with Sport and Aero Kit. Front bumper bars. Style 87's and loaded

1) 153,200 miles owned it since 22k miles in 04
2) Radiator replaced - my fault with lack of antifreeze on a very cold winter night.
3) All hose/belt maintenance
4) Guibo/Flexdisc
5) Alternator
6) 2 Window regulators
7) Valve Cover Gaskets
8) Both CV's boots/axles
9) Oil Change every 7-10K miles with synthetic.
10) Transmission original and not touched or fluids changed. Been advised not to change it unless the tranny fails. Shifts and runs strong. Don't fix what ain't broke
11) HID lights

Still gets about 21/22 in Hwy and 16-18
Around town. Been very reliable and hasn't let me down. She will be going to a new home soon. Time to let her go.

198,674 miles on my 2001
window regulators numerous times,final stage resistor, spark plugs, Alternator, valley pan gasket, all seals and gaskets on the top half of the motor, battery, CV boots,wheel bearings, and various bulbs, radio, AC fan and clutch, windshield wiper motor, I noticed a slip in the transmission when I would take off, so I had the transfer case chain replaced.I was told by the mechanic that took care of the transfer case chain..NOT to replace my transmission fluid with as many miles that I have on mine. My X5 would go into shock and would damage everything.

'06 3.0 135K+
I drive 20K a year, mostly highway for work. It has been virtually FLAWLESS! Just the HID leveling electrics have been replaced, otherwise, just lots of regular service.

About 10-15K on new Trans fluid/filter/gasket, no problems. I feel happier about removing all the metal in the bottom of the pan and putting new fluid in.

I tried 87 octane a few times, but got some mild pinging. Won't do that again.

My X5 experience has been so good, I'm looking to buy another one maybe this week. My wifes POS Saturn needs replacing and I'm thinking whats better than 1 X5 than 2..!?!

Little tip... go on dealer website and look for service specials. I get my oil changes for 79.95 at the dealer now


I assume you go here-- Synthetic Oil Change | Peter Pan BMW Serving San Francisco, San Mateo, CA

Naz, yup you caught me, just got it done by Peter Pan and it's $88.45 now for the v8 and $69.99 for v6 w/ coupon special. Also had to replace some hose$ for the steering wheel reservoirs; as it was leaking...Miles: 51,935

Hopefully, I won't to see them for another 10k+ miles.
