Getting there on my bi-xenon retrofit!

Replaced Air intake boot,(had a small rip in it)reason for service engine soon light,next is the Diesel valve needs to be replaced..will try this week.oops,it's called Disa valve.

i see your a pong player :D

DISA was a two minute repair, easy. Part was a little expensive. I did manage to get mine for $178 plus $12 for overnight shipping from dealership in Nebraska. My damaged one was falling to pieces (literally). Least expensive place I found. Stealership here in MO wanted $30 OVER what BMW set the price!! Hate that place. They also charge $10 a qt for BMW oil. NE charges $5.90

Pong:rofl:,wow $178,I found mine for $205 $6 s&h,ya I'll put it in myself with DIY from this site,the old one is making that rattle noise,just waiting for new one to get here.

let me know if you find all kinds of carbon crusted on it and inside the engine. Mine seemed a little too dirty considering I only use premium Shell which isn't supposed to do this. So we are told.

Unfortunately for my wallet, my baby went in for a bunch of work today. Leaky brake lines, CV joint, power steering pump, control arms. All were fine in the spring, but broke for Xmas <waaaahhh> But, I luv my X5 and at 100k miles it's time for some TLC.

Had the CCV with all associated hoses and the drivers side window switch panel replaced yesterday. So now I can go to the drive thru without embarassment. Now lets see if I still have to add a quart of oil every 800 miles...

New front lower ball joints and urethane thrust bushings. With 50 series tires, I don't feed any difference in road noise with the stiffer bushings. The steering/braking does feel tighter now.
