I quit X5s for this reason. Got rid of my last one about 4000 miles out of CPO warranty.

Is it really worth it? I think that's the better question to ask [yourself]. Congrats on the purchase; I miss my 4.8i every day.

It's just downshifting, man. Combined with some crappy software (relatively speaking).

So, after almost two months with the GTI, I've got to say that I miss my X5 less and less. That's not to say that I don't miss it at all. I definitely miss the "luxury" the X5 offered over what the...

I already miss the leg room, I'm 6'4". The GTI is a bit tight, but it's worth it for the go-cart-ness and the fuel economy. I'm overall very impressed with the price:power ratio from the factory. I...

I've had three E36s in my past (two of which were M3s), and two X5s. I think I just need a change and a back-to-basics kind of thing. The GTI comes stock with Bluetooth, iPod hookup, and heated...

You're tellin' me. The salesman thought I was joking when I showed him my X5 to trade in. I told him it was a midlife crisis and not to ask questions.

Thanks all.

X5 4.8 to a VW GTI? No way.

I did it. Trading in the 2007 X5 4.8 for a 2013 GTI 2 door 6 speed manual. Sorry to leave you all. Been a fun ride, no pun intended. I'll be back, though, someday.

I don't think this is really a "throttle response reset." It used to be mentioned as a "transmission reset." Some people swear by it, whereas others doubt it's even doing anything.

I've read that with BMW awd systems, it's not a good idea to mix/match different tread depth tires. It could be a conspiracy, but it makes sense to me. As JCL mentioned, it could affect the transfer...
