Having just sold my X5, I am now selling the Tunit box on ebay. If you are interested in purchasing, please let me know and I'll end the auction early - I'd sooner sell it to a fellow X5 world forum...

'Check Brake Linings' WTF????

I'm getting this error on the OBC. I take it the brake pad sensors are kicking in? The car has only done 17K miles is this normal? Surely I should get more mileage out of a set of brake pads?
