Long wait. Finally have X5
Long wait. Finally have X5
Hey everyone new to this forum so thought i would take a quick minute to introduce myself and more importantly my new x5. Wanted one for ages and finally managed to save the funds for one. Bought a 2004 3.0d sport. Stirling grey, the colour i always wanted. Black leather, sat nav, bluetooth probably more but i cant remember.lol
I am a perfectionist with my cars so i plan on getting this beast upto standard, already have new cast iron manifold, crankcase breather, thermostate, all new seals for inlet, glowplugs and having injectors cleaned and serviced. I like preventative maintence.lol When all is in tip top shape a remap is on the way.
I will add pics when i can and try and get some when doing all the work above.

Welcome indeed.
That is a fair bit of preventative maintenance, nice one.
So, where are the pics?
