Guess there must be a lot of claims with electric cars or the claims are bigger due to the high cost of repair .Time to move for sure though

Dragged it in now by towrope lol , glad they have their best man on it

Need to but cant be bothered just yet

I paid a little under £200 when my e70 one had a pinhole, it was a Behr one I got

Virtually every cac I've ever bought only came with one key till I got the x5 and it would have been a deal breaker if there were not 2 working genuine keys given the cost of them and hassle getting it sorted. I hope you can get this sorted quickly and without too much cost and as I've learned in ...

If it needed a new key battery it would not be the standard key you have to cut open surely , I suppose they fail sometime but are generally long lasting. If you press the locking button on the dash and it locks then at least the hardware can lock which is a decent start.Syncing the fob as said is a ...

Xenon Headlights I bought for my old 2001 e46 had the yellow knob tha back to switch between LHD and RHD , they changed to bi xenon in 2002 snd after that no more adjustment at the light.

They are old now Chances of getting s good one are getting slimmer by the week , and it's possibly had an oil service and brake pads but the computer hasn't been reset ?

18's wont clear the brakes on an e70 ,minimum 19's
You will find no matter it's se or Msport most e70's for sale come on 20's , you can get winters for these no problem other than cost , I run a cheap set of full winters /mud and snow ( Rotalla ice plus ) on mine and have run them throughout the ...

I'd say it's getting difficult to get a decent e53 now given the age of them but there are a few left yet.

Thet we're nearly all on 20's anything less looks too small with optional 21's , Not sure what the bmw recommended tyres are as I run cheap tyres. The proper approved ones will be around 250 a corner and will be runflat .
The sd is possibly 3 groups higher insurance I seem to remember group 47 out ...

No it's fine to run without .

The front sensor is for headlight levelling I think as the x5 generally only has 2 rear level sensors .

It's not that big but I got a space saver in mine and a few bits and bobs , these never came with one as they had run flat tyres but most fit ordinary tyres now as they are far cheaper and comfort is generally better too ..As long as the 4 tyres are the same brand and replace all 4 at once it should ...

Earlier cars like that sd are not affected by the front propshaft joint problem as they don't have that joint, I will say though earlier cars are affected by rear diff failure and replacements are getting hard to find and you can expect to pay up to 1k for one , mine went at 160k .Check for oil ...
