Highest Mileage X5M

Jimmy K · 12-12-2018, 07:33 AM

Who's got the highest mileage X5M? I usually keep my cars for 10+ years. Can I expect long term reliability out of this vehicle?

Is the oldest x5m even ten years old? I think 2011 was the first year?

I fear owning it out of warranty.

2010 was first year on the last generation.

Well, gauging from the fact that the worst BMW M vehicle ever made, the M5 e60 v10, which had issues from day 1, are still surviving if well maintained, and the fact that the first gen X6/X5 M are still doing great, you should expect the current X6/X5 M to last well over 10+ years …. if well maintained ….

…. But that applies to all bimmers, no? And if you're an avid DIY'er, expect this to happen without your wallet getting malnourished … and that applies to all automobiles …

2018 LLB, 3500 miles on the clock still going strong...

2015 with 51k miles. Have had quite a few items replaced but overall good. Transmission has been doing some odd things as of late but hopefully all good. Keeping an eye on it.

A little over 30k miles in 1.5 yrs. No real issues so far but I would never want to own a vehicle like this out of warranty.

About 75k km or 50k mi, zero defects (it's almost eerie in such a complex car) but one unsolved real mystery, a slowly rising coolant level in the charge cooling circuit.

Switched from 20" Pirellis to 21" Michelins after some 25k mi, for much improved driving experience.
