Big hello to all. Just bought a X5 for winter driving. The gremlins set in as soon as I arrived Home :'(  Flat Battery, now put in new battery only to find starter motor dead...New starter fitted, drove home to find air suspension problem on dash and drivers side rear is sitting low >:( Wife is well impressed with my buying skills.
