My X5 Hits 13 Years...
In a couple days. Got it new back on 9-15-2001...
Still runs very well, especially for a car going into its 14th year, and we still enjoy driving it. Has 96k+ miles on it, and I don't have any intention of replacing it in the near future. The list of repairs other than maintenance stuff is fairly short and barely a handful, and if something goes boom! any time soon, I would get it repaired rather than toss it. I need to do the 2nd replacement batt swap out soon, (new one is sitting in my garage on the Batt Tender), and it needs brakes/rotors and probably thrust arms, MT fluid, trans case fluid, brake fluid, and an oil change. A cooling system overhaul is looming, also.. How much of this I will feel like doing myself is based strictly on my very busy Retired Bum schedule, and my vigor feel on any given day.  The fan blower motor is chirping on higher speeds, but after reading the R&R for that lil'beauty I will let it die first, but hopefully that will not be soon. It is the 2nd or 3rd best car I have ever owned in 50+ years of cars... Here is to another year, or more.  Good Luck, mD
