    FC on X5 3.0

    Re: FC on X5 3.0 I'll try Sports mode on my next tank and see. But I find the Sports mode on the X5 is not as shiok as in my earlier 523... maybe cos the body is heavier.

    FC on X5 3.0

    Re: FC on X5 3.0 Managed to turn in 8.4km/L this week. (vs 7.5km/L) That's almost 700km on a full tank. Still on Shell 98, but I tried to reduce the number of adhoc trips to the hawker centre. Instead, I'll go buy food on the way home instead of going home then going out again. (ie...

    Looking for e70 x5

    Re: Looking for e70 x5 Mileage tampering is a criminal offence and it's not that easy to tamper the mileage on a BMW. I find that sometimes, the reputable dealers are more honest than direct sellers. But hope you find your ideal ride soon! :)

    2008 X5

    Re: 2008 X5 About $1500 to fix it. I got similar quotes from 2 specialist workshops so it's about there. They replaced the actuator, which is not cheap. But if there are no complications, it's a 2hr job to fix, although you should plan on leaving the car with them for at least half a day.

    2008 X5

    Re: 2008 X5 Is it intermittent or permanent? If intermittent, it's likely not the active steering itself but some sensor (still not cheap to fix, but cheaper!). Best to contact one of the sponsors in the workshop section for a check and estimate.

    FC on X5 3.0

    Re: FC on X5 3.0 I guess I can't complain about my FC then... :) I'm now driving a 2008 X5 3.0i. I get about 7.5km/L on average. About 70/30 highway/city driving. I've found that Shell vPower actually turns in worse FC on the X5 than the Shell 98. (forced to pump vPower during the...

    4x4, DSC, ABS lights up

    Hi, Any X5 owners here who have experienced seeing the 4x4 error lights together with ABS, DSC and parking brake error coming on? It happened about a week ago intermittently, and now it seems to be more persistent. Preliminary diagnosis seems to suggest that some transfer case needs to...

    Baby Car Seat Recommendations

    Re: Baby Car Seat Recommendations Most major brands will 'work' fine in our cars. The key thing is to secure the seat firmly by tugging the seat belt to ensure a tight fit. Protection of the leather seats may be a concern, so you can go buy a seat protector for about $50 from major...
