I'm reviving this thread. Now that the X5 has been around for several years, did BMW work out several of the issues by it's second year or did it take longer? What is your guys opinion?

Thanks

I was wondering why the poll questions seemed so 'old' and out of date.

I'll tell ya, I have a 2011 that I bought in July of 2010 with just over 12,000 miles on it now and it's far and away one of the best vehicles I've ever owned.

And I've been averaging 24.5 MPG around town since day one!

I think 08 and the accompanying firmwares throughout the year fixed most of them. Creaks/rattles too. I guess you could say the '09s should be solid without updates.
