Morning Robert

Welcome to the Forum

The GO5 X6 as far as I am aware are all 6 cylinder Diesel or Petrol plus the Petrol V8 as far as I am aware the engine choices are

The xDrive40i M Sport has a 3.0-litre, in-line six turbo-petrol engine with a maximum outputs of 280kW and 540Nm.

The xDriveM60i has a 4.4-litre, eight-cylinder turbo-petrol engine with maximum outputs of 390kW and 750Nm.

The xDrive30d has a 3.0-litre, six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine with maximum outputs of 219kW and 650Nm.

The M Competition model has 4.4-litre, V8 turbo-petrol engine with maximum outputs of 460kW and 540Nm.

If it is a traffic light racer you want then the V8 is hard to beat but obviously operating costs are higher than a 6 cylinder petrol or diesel Fuel,Tyres, Insurance and servicing 

I have 2 X5's a 4.6is V8 around 18mpg average but glorious noise and acceleration (High days and Holidays car now) and a daily driver 3.0d around 28 mpg around town high 30's on a run

Hope this helps  

Dave

      filter change recomendations

      OK will look to adopt that advice. Oil filter does get changed out annually but will look to the air filter also. Good idea on hoovering the pollen filters though.

      520D SE F11 rear suspension issues

      Thanks for your input. I checked the the DC Voltage with a meter on either side of the fuses (152 and 182) on top ,so I know the fuses are good I also checked the relay 'on the bench' and it's functioning too. Maybe the car needs a reset with a BMW Diagnostics kit as there is still an icon on the dashboard which will not clear?
