My 2002 x5 3D comes with a strange sort of drone at around 1500 rpm or just over, seems to come from the engine compartment, it isn't the drive train as it is there when the car is stationary, rev it higher or lower and it does'nt seem to be there. I would nearly think an engine mount bracket was touching the chassis without any rubber if that makes any sense so wondering if anyone else has encountered such a thing?

I would think it might be a belt or pulley vibrating/oscillating at 1500rpm (as you have stated), a busted mount would be more of a clunk under load or coming off load... Just an idea ;)

      X5 3.0 si 2007 E52K Parts Online?

      Hi. I would have no issues using second hand parts as long as they are straight and clean. where are you based? Check realoem and put your vin number in to get part numbers for the pan, then eBay or the likes.. in the Uk, I use quarry motors for most of my bits. I’m sure they would post worldwide if needed. good luck

      Battery Discharge 650i

      Hi bud. the easy way to tell is to put your mobile phone on record and leave it in there. … I would assume the switch is on the inside of the clip, the female part in the dash, rather than the male section on the door, there would have to be wires to it so it wouldn’t be on a hinged door. How quick does it drain the battery? how are you checking the amps on the battery?
