1) Good.
2) Have you owned a BMW SUV before ? They have more maintenance issues than a "car" like the '05 330 you had. There is more technology in the engines.
3) All used cars come from an auction? So when someone buys it from a private party or when it was a trade-in it was at auction?
4) There is a thing called a CPO warranty (I just had $4K in oil leaks covered). Used cars off of lease are out of warranty ? I bought mine off of lease 2 years old with only 15K miles on it.

Sounds like you got what you paid for--a high mileage, out of warranty, undocumented, over-used X5 for a cheap price. Surprised??

Good luck but stop trashing your bad choices here.:dunno:

Jamilio,

What Indy shop did you take the X to?

not to sound like a broken record and this will add no value but when you come to someone's house and have nothing good to say you will get :flame:. as some have said your choice was no one else's and if you wanted opinions don't come here with how you feel. you want to vent that's fine but opinion and advice on this topic should be kept separate.

:drama:

I took it to Nim at http://www.nveuromotor.com

Stance Factory in your area does great work as well...one of their techs (owner as well) used to be a tech at Bimmersport...just some FYI if NIM can't rectify the X issues...

Good luck and keep everyone posted

thank you. I will let everyone know what the issues were in hopes that it will help someone in the future.


....unlike a bunch of people who surf forums just to troll and state pointless opinions just for the sake of having their voices heard instead of giving advice from their own experiences.

If you don't have experience with what the thread starter is asking, Don't post! Your opinion is useless.

You win some you lose some, I bought mine with 130KM on it and no real issues so far.

Buying used and higher mileage is how we afford to get into the cars we want but I understand the risk going in and don't get mad if it fails.

Very true. I'm just more disappointed than mad. Always been a BMW guy but this is my first experience with an SAV
