I came to the X5 after a pair of Jeep Commanders. I loved them. I had an '08 that I racked up 98K on really quickly. Didn't do anything to it outside of brakes and tires. Traded that in for a '10 to get back to 30K miles. Took that up to 65K and had to replace the battery in it. Was having AC issues when I traded it for the X5 this summer.

I loved the Commanders.

When you hear the clatter PARK IT NOW. You will find all your horseshoe cam guide plastic in the oil pan.

If doing it yourself it's $1000 in parts, $250 in tools if you can't rent or borrow (or just have enough M62 cars around to warrant buying them), and a crapload of labor.

Doing our 540 now, 196k. Taking me forever 'cause I decided to do heater hoses, sand down and clear the headlights, remove the dinan CAI, etc. and parts ordering got delayed thru the holidays.
