i had my 4.6 for about six months and had no problems really with engine but spent a few quid on running gear ie had both sway arms replaced gear box softwear update and is currently got back end striped off for sub frame bushes but driving it makes it worth it
My new web site is now live www.csprestigeinteriorsltd.com Have a look and give me your feedback Negative or posative I'm no web site designer so need to know if and where it might need improvements thanks
I had some blinding rows with the wife about what car I get if I see something I want and can afford it I get it like when I swopped my jag for that big American truck and just turned up one night with it First words out of her mouth was You can get rid of that as soon as you like Soon being a year in that case !!!
I agree with dabs spray looks pants and can be mot falier proper tinted lights look better and are road legal I got slight tinted lights there are some before and after pics on x5 forum of mine and they dident break the bank
Apparently it's an update to overcome a common fault the x5 has when traveling between first and second gear to be honest I dissent have a clue what the gezza was talking about but they have looked after my dads 7 series for ten years and if £48 sorts out the problem I don't give a fook what they do and as for rear sub frame bushes I could prob get bits myself and do the job but I'm a strong believer in stick to what you know . If I did it myself it would take me maybe two days in this time i can earn £600 doing my job so by letting them do it I'm quits in !!!
Finally got to the bottom of this problem. Sport mode judder is due to sub frame bushes and low speed judder is due to gear box needing BMW upgrade softwear All four sub frame bushes = £450 gear box upgrade software reprogram = £48
Think I just sorted mine when the mirror selector on drivers door is to the right drivers mirror auto tilt activates when reverse is selected but with this switch to the left passenger mirror it stays put when reverse is selected
