JCL, thanks for your input. I found that thread and others. What worried me was a comment about the ABS unit and that if air gets in then only a special machine at BMW can repair that. So I wondered if there was a "How to" that gave instructions relevant to the X5 workings and prevent any problems.

If you are familiar with bleeding brakes you may be fine. Go slowly and carefully. If you draw air into the circuit by letting the master cylinder get too low the air can get trapped in the ABS controller. There are dead ends, valves, and actuators there. If air does get in there you need to use the BMW service computer to cycle the ABS valves while bleeding. It can be frustrating, and a challenge. Good luck.
