ugh... so the battery died just as I put the license plates on after registering it.
but good news, the previous owner had put a brand new M5 battery into it last year so I just went to the parts store and exchanged it for a brand new one at no charge. I'm going to install it after work and got for my first drive hopefully.

Congrats on the project. Nice that you got some things resolved aready with just some sweat equity.
Do you mind elaborating on what you mean by "steering wheel movement non-functioning"? Good luck and I'm positive you'll find that this site will be helpful along the way to getting the X back in shape.

the joystick (or whatever you call it) does not move the steering wheel. Also, the memory functions do nothing. I think it's the module on the side of the driver's seat from my reading.
this site is my new best friends... loving the mountains of good information.

any idea if there is there a manual override with a torx, screwdriver etc? just so I can get it out of entry position.

I am glad to see more positive posts.
My project was pricier than yours to start with  If you have a spare ride and decent toolbox,don't listen to anybody with crappy attitudes,it's your money and your time you are spending,it's nobody else's business. Enjoy it and if not,part it out,you'll make way more than $2000.

I love my X5 and the spare ride helps when the small projects get in the way of driving her! This site has tons of info and has saved me tons of $$$$! Good luck with the project!

Say what! I recall seeing this X in westernmass not to long ago in better shape, unless it was another black X with rims and tap out sticker.

It must have been a different one... odds are there are more than one black x5 with a tapout sticker. (removing it was my first mod)
I put the new M5 spec battery in the car after work and it lasted while I was in the gym and got me home. Fingers crossed that my bad battery was the issue and not that some drain caused the battery to die. I guess I'll find out in the morning. I hate tracing electrical problems.
