101k

Changed trans fluid at 75k, no problems, replaced usual stuff including valley pan gasket, plugs, O2 sensors, recent expansion tank and purge valve.

Biggest issue has been ride height, numerous compressors, sensors, ecu’s over its life- I’m original owner

I've owned it for 368 days and I've only put 1200 miles on it.

Pretty sure I have the hardest ridden 106k mile X5. Spent the last 6 months rebuilding the transmission and timing chain guides. Now to rehab the suspension.

Someone beat the hell out of that X and probably did nothing to maintain it.

My 3.0d has recently clicked over 232,000km - still runs like a new one (other than forgetting a few of the opening lines from the song, so it whistles the first part instead...).

The plan was to buy dirt cheap older X that had been beat on a little with the intention of polishing this little turd into a sorted out DD. This one has been beat on a little more than I anticipated. Oh well... I'm in too deep to get out now.
