I have a 2014 X5 5.0. Tonight the low level light came on telling me to add two quarts of oil. As I didn't believe it needed that much oil out of the clear blue I added one quart and measured the oil...

None of the above. Just an opportunity for something new and more power. Almost had her convinced to go to an X5M. She also has a 2008 135i Convert and I have a 2010 M6.

I've owned every V8 X5 BMW has built and I've driven the 3.0. I wouldn't even consider the six for the E70 X5. I'm not even happy with the power of the E70 4.8 when compared to my E53 4.8i. The...

They ended up replacing my front diff and of course that required a four wheel alignment all covered under warranty. The actual leak was at the seam.

We have the ventilated seats and are very pleased with them. Here in Florida it's really nice to get truly cool air on a hot day. They're especially good on long trips. I'd highly recommend them.
