Upgraded to a 04 4.4i - question!
Can those with experience with the 04 4.4i (N62), give some advice on what I should look to take care of now before it goes? WP/pully/CCV etc..etc. It has 115K miles on it? Thanks

Its very common on the 7 series. There is plenty of reports of it happening on the 5 and 6 aswell.
My 04 N62 X5 is currently in the shop getting the repair done and the mechanic told me hes had two 7's in the last month with the same issue. Do a quick google search, its pretty worrying.

Timing chain guide rail.
Preventative maintenance is pretty much the same on both model.

Thanks for the reply guys. I had the dealer do some work before I bought it. Boots, some leaks, trany sleeve leak. It has a strange vibration when standing still in drive but fine when driving no wheel shake. Someone told me it could be the motor monts - they have seen this before with my model. Will have to look into that and take care of the WP/belts/CCV when this weather in GA realize that it should be spring.

 The N62 suffers more with the violent shaking upon cold start-up from the valvetronic intermediate levers vs the timing chain guides on the M62TU.
