Hi All- Back in an X5
I haven't been around for a couple of years as i swapped my F15 for a VW Amerok , while i was doing up a new house.
Having had a 30d then a 40d , this time i decided to try a 50d . Brilliant machine feels quite rapid!

These guys did mine a few weeks ago, excellent. Yours can be done through the diagnostic port so an easy one.
