X5 3.0i One Year of Ownership
 
So it's been about one year since we purchased our 2005 X5 3.0i! I put together this playlist of X5 and M54 specific repairs that I completed over the last year. Here's what you're in for if you buy an X5 without maintenance records:

What are you guys working on lately?

^^Your videos are great richard - I've watched a few, and probably will use some more to do some items preventatively - (aux fan and ignition switch come to mind)

I remember my first year of ownership, getting "caught up" on maintenance - it gets better, trust me!

I've been watching your vids and learning so much! Thank you for taking the time to make the vids and sharing them! :thumbup:

I'm getting ready to do a front suspension refresh since recently I've been getting a wobble while breaking. Also it doesn't help that I put bigger wheels & tires.

Please keep making vids and posting them... Thank you
