I drive an 02 E53 X5 3.0d and had the same problem. I went to my BMW dealer and they found out that I had to replace my FSR ( final stage resistor) and auxilliary fan assembly. Get a second opinion from another stealership before you make your final decisio. Shoot me a pm so we can exchange info...
FSR I think a place called www.c3bmw.co.uk do em

I have the oem 4.8is mufflers/tips fitted and the inside paint on one tip has also peeled off.So ,even happens with Bmw tips.
Just sand it down.degrease it and apply some "wurth" black HT spray and you are sorted.:thumbup:

Never had a moments problem with my X5 3.0d except for an annoying and intermittent "check oil level" false warning since the last service.
Other than that I still feel amazed when I drive it. It always feels like I am driving someone else's car!! I can't believe I own it :D:D

:boogie: Love my X5
Had the same false"check oil level warning!The oil level was between the lower and higher marks,so no reason for it to throw a light:dunno:

Do you have any warning messages on the OBC?
Hook the X5 to a diagnostic machine and read the codes.It could be a number of things!
What part of UK are you from?I can recommend someone in the Gloucestershire area...

JBF 06-15-2010 12:43 PM
Where would I even begin to start... Have had two new turbos in the last 12 months! :dunno:
