Goodness Stephen. 170? I thought Red needed to be driven more and managed to put 3500 on her in 2020 (now sitting right around 125400 miles). Understand the hesitation though. Always a gamble with the idiots out there.

When we parked my buddies 5th wheel camper we knew the tires would be D-shaped if we didn't do anything so we lifted most of the weight off the tires and set the axle on wood blocks. It would be a five minute process to do similar to put a wood block under the suspension arms to relieve most of the tire weight.

I hit 231k this morning!!
Not sure if it will be ![]() ![]() ![]() Also they make foam filled anti flat spot chocks that aren't very expensive if you want to keep tires in a doughnut shape. Sent from my SM-A730F using Tapatalk

Best value has been Continental Extreme Contacts. Good traction, wear longer, good in wet or dry, traction fine, a little more roll over than some others, quiet, nice ride and cost much less than most other options. I am on my second set and recently put them on our X5M as well.

I second this statement. I've got these on both my 4.8 and my E38. And no flat spots on my E38 from sitting over the winter.

We have a 2001 X5 3.0i. 239,000. It's been very well behaved, apart from the oil separator. I think this was a BMW joke. Sorry BMW, not funny. Rear suspension bushes will soon need sorting. One air spring burst at about 220,000. Iffy pixels. That's it.
Also 2001 X5 4.4i. Bought cheap with bad water leak from rear of engine. Whoops! Was on l.p.g so brilliant and cheap. Leak was valley pan. Had been "repaired" with bathroom sealer, not silicone. New part from BMW cheaper. It eat it's timing chain tensioner and developed a serious oil leak from the sump. Gearbox can judder a bit, but must wait until summer now. My wife says I have a problem as I also have E38 750, E34 540 touring, E36 318i touring on lpg and a too new 2012 320d. Not a problem, surely? |
