E39 climate control unit compatibility with x5.
I recently fitted an e39 climate control unit into my x5. Reason for this was the pixels had gone on my original one. I was delighted initially with the new unit with the little screen being clear as a bell. In time however, I realised that the commands were not being followed as before. For example ...

Re: Headlight conversion
They do look like that right enough but I'm assured they aren't. Time will tell!!!

Re: Headlight conversion
Well, I've just broke the bank on a set of xenon lights. They appear to be oem and were originally imported from Germany. Never seen ones like this before but they look good. Hopefully this will update the look of my car. Let me know what you think.

Re: If you've got a 10 yr+ X5, Oil Separator pipes / Hoses may need replacing.
Find this really interesting Leon. I have the same car as your and although I have no visible oil leaks, my oil does need topped up occasionally. This may or may not be the reason but will give me food for thought. Feel free to post a pic if that's ok!!
Thanks, Chris.

Re: New Rear Tyres
In the process of replacing my diamaras on the rear also Denis. Exact same symptoms as you. Plenty of treads at the side, worn to the warning mark on the middle. I've never over inflated them despite what the condition of the tyre suggests.

Re: Headlight conversion
This is all great stuff guys. Thank you so much.
Can you give me an idea of the angel eyes you were referring to on eBay? I've looked myself and it's so much if a minefield!!!

Re: Headlight conversion
Well it's great to find someone in the same boat as myself. I have an imola red, 2002 4.6 x5 and love it to bits. With exception of the headlights. To be honest, these after market headlights for the e53 in my opinion don't look the best. The depo ones linked to this post look the best I've seen but ...
