My wife's 2015 X5 is in the same category.

If you are a member of a credit union, most credit unions offer mechanical breakdown protection - much cheaper than BMW extended warranty.

N55 charge pipes are made of plastic so it's best to proactively replace it with Evolution Racewerks charge pipe around 50K miles.
I'm asking this since you explicitly mentioned 2015 X5 models are reliable. I'm in the market for a 2016 X5. Is 2016 better or at par or is it worse compared to 2015 ? I'm trying to pick the brains of the experienced folks here.
