Hi guys, the outside edge of my front tyres (275/40/20) are worn badly but the rest of the tyre including the rears are 5mm across the tyre, would it be ok to change the fronts for new tyres or would I need to buy 4 and replace them all?

It’s more noticeable when cold but I can still hear it when it’s warm, definitely wasn’t there 2 weeks ago as that’s when my wife was last in the car, she got in yesterday and without me asking if she could hear it she said what’s that whistling noise?

Hi I’ve had my car around 6 weeks now and all has been fine (2009 x5 35sd), had it serviced after I bought it and health check at the same time, just lately it seems to be whistling from start up, noticeable on tick over and when accelerating, I’ve no warning lights or codes when I use bimmercode and ...

It was on my list to do in the first few months of ownership, I cant ask the garage to do it I've been a nuisance on price and insisting it gets a fresh mot as it still had 7 months left, he's also upgraded the warranty from 3 months to a year.

Drove it today and I thought it drove perfect going back to buy it in the morning after he's tested it.
Thanks for your input guys.

Thanks guys I’m going to drive it tomorrow I’ll want at least 30 minutes and to drive it up to around 70 mph and make sure gearbox changes up and down smoothly, also I’ll want to drive it slowly to check on the diff issues, any other tips?

As I understand it , dealers don't like cars on their pitch that don't fall into BMWs Approved Used criteria. They send them straight to auction. This garage is less than a mile from the main dealer and seems to have a few bmw 1-3 and 5 series of the same age and value which would back up the car ...

So I missed out on that one I was looking at as I insisted on a test drive before buying and the dealer has sold it via internet, I had another in mind and was wanting opinion on a slight issue I had at the time, it's a 2009 X5 35dse reg number HV09AXN vin number L291216, its done 116000 miles with ...

Thanks guys, I asked the dealer to email me the VIN code and have used this to get the correct info, it is the M57 engine and looking at the options it looks a good spec model, I'm going to wait until next week when we can hopefully visit car showrooms and get a test drive.

Hi I have been looking for my first X5 and have read loads of posts on this site (cheers), I have seen a nice 58 plate msport with full history, car looks really clean its on 111000 miles and has been serviced every 10000 miles, I thought the engine changed from M57 to N57 prefix in 2010 but ...

Thanks for that probably going to wait until lockdown is over to try them out, dealers are saying they deliver but I'd rather drive a few before buying.

Hi all As the title says I'm looking to buy an E70 X5 and have seen 2 I like, first one is a 2009 X35d se with the 286bhp engine 96000 miles and full history, other one is X5 3.0D 245bhp 2010 model with 114000 miles, both cars are very clean and within £500 of each other, which one would make the ...
