I guess the question is if those are endemic to the X5 M or did you just get a bad build with too many unusual issues?

Also, I wonder how many of those issues may have been "engineered out" of the more recent models?
Yea, those thoughts have gone through my head. Out of all of our BMW's this one has had the most issues. I even had a first year 335i with 0 issues when everyone else I knew was having fuel pumps fail and waste gate rattle. Luck of the draw I guess.

Wait and see how the next 10k miles go and decide then but at this moment, I'm undecided. If I am going to have issues to deal with I'd rather have a Land Rover. If they produce the Discovery SVX I will probably change it up.
