Starter or Ignition switch?
Purchased 2005 x5 4.8iS on Saturday. Everything cool in NYC (of course). Drove to NJ/PA line, stopped for gas.
x5 would not start. No crank, no clicks, nothing. Dash lights all looked great. After poppin the hood and checking around jumped in and started up. Ran fine, stopped near home. Came back 2 hours later, started normal. Drove home and parked. Sunday afternoon, first time tried to start since parking the night before, and.. x5 would not start. No crank, no clicks, nothing. Dash lights all looked great. I did not bother popping the hood or anything, just came back five minutes later and started right up. Started multiple other times that day with no issues.

Mine is doing it as we type here. I've researched and found an article on how to take the switch apart and clean it for free. $39 to 89 for a new switch.

Nope, just had back surgery and not ready to wrestle with the steering column. I might on Saturday if I can lean forward enough. I did drive it last night though, and miss it alot. It wouldn't start again(after it started 4 times in a row). I got it washed so its pretty and not running now.
