Hello to all, I just purchased a 2003 X5 4.4 with 69K miles. Paid 9K for her. Car is in good condition. Frankly after reading a bit here, I wonder if I made the right decision. Just blew out the sunroof drains front and rear, since my passenger foot well had a puddle in it after heavy SE FL rain. The sunroof motor runs and clicks but with sporadic movement. The holding down button reset did not work. Seems like it's off the track. Going to get it closed and sealed and forget about it. Any advice n getting it sealed tight permanently?

Where is the best place to get replacement little parts, such as buttons for under the A/C, tiny trim rings around the interior door lock shafts, tool kit etc.?

Looks like a great forum, look forward to getting a zillion questions answered!

Thx in advance...

$9k and only 70k miles. I think you got a fair deal...

As far as parts, you can try our forum sponsor ECS Tuning. They have a great website and competitive prices.

If you are a handy, these trucks are a great value. You can't get much for $9k these days, you can barely buy a Honda CRV for $9k. Use the forum and put some time into your truck to get it perfect, it will reward you.

Enjoy...
