Time to say goodbye
 

It has been good to have the X5 in the stable, but the time has come and I sold it yesterday. Have to move forward and I eyed a nice X3 (F25) with the N52 engine. Was toying with the idea to grab the N55 but I already have a biturbo and I decided to settle for the "lesser" inline 6. Has a much better fuel economy than the v8 and moves decent.
Thanks for all the input on this forum and GL with the upkeep.

Good choice, not only that you won't have to worry about direct injection carbon build up on your valves. Really bad issue with turbos. Have fun , enjoy the ride. Hope it's trouble free.

thanks for alllll your input and help over the years Doru. Take care sir
