Yeah, it was actually advertised on Craigslist. Called the guy and he has a small shop/yard with a bunch of crappy auction cars lol. Just so happens the place is far enough from the city that nobody...

Just arrived at a junkyard with a matching topaz blue X5 and a couple others. I'm gonna have those sports seats, that black headliner, the paint-matched bull bar, and whatever else I can think of!

Okay, fantastic. I tend to do that (overthinking), but never when it counts, like when buying a car [emoji23]

So I didn't want to start a new thread and I've been doing some reading on the Shell Rotella T6 5W-40 oil, but I see it's mostly been used in older BMWs with iron blocks. The M54 has an aluminum...

I'm fairly certain it's not the flywheel, though I'm sure it will need to be replaced at some point. I don't have the lack of throttle response, weird engagement, or vibration really. It just seems...

Yeah that happened to me on a major highway with shoulders just barely larger than my car, with walls, and traffic going 65 to 80 mph. I've never changed a tire faster in my life! I figured it'd be...
