Introduction '01 4.4

Hi all,

Just picked up my X5 with 115,000 miles. It's been wonderful. Had SES light on so I replaced MAF and CPS, what a huge difference.

I just took a 2600 mile road trip and love how comfortable it cruises. I have a Dynavin and backup camera in a box ready to install. At one point I was following a new Challenger through some sweeping curves and looked down to see I was going 90, I had no idea.

One new issue is a strong steering wheel vibration only when braking above 60mph. All other times it rides straight and smooth.

Typical thrust arm bushings needs to be replaced. Just do a search on this forum or Google it. There's a youtube video on this.

Thx, that's what I thought. Coming from all 5 series I've replaced a few.
