Very nice color. I have the same color with Black wheels and I cannot stop looking at it. You mentioned that you changed your oil pan gaskets, Was it a DIY or you had someone else do it? I need to do the same because I am getting a drop or two of oil every time I stop the X5.

I did it myself. Ive owned and repaired my own bimmers for about 20 years now though. Its a diy job if you know your way around a car and a tool box though.

I know my way around the X5 by now. I do must DIY, but the oil pan gasket require the lifting of the engine and I don't have a lifting tool. That is the only stopper for me right now.

You can rent a hoist, or if youre careful you can raise the engine enough with a jack.

Thanks,

I am going to wait a little while until I really have to do it or something else require me to take the suspension off.
