Got a 2009 x5 3.0 with 162k on it it.

Parts replaced:
Been through 3 water pumps and 3 thermostats
Cooling system hoses and plastic connectors as they seem to granande randomly
Cooling system expansion tank
All 6 ignition coils twice
Rear suspension airbags twice
A new air bag compressor
Rear main seal replacement
Oil pan gasket
Oil level sensor
Rear hatch tail light assemblies, water got in and ate away the electrical traces
Valve cover gasket
Both vanos solenoids
Replaced the starter twice already
Eccentric shaft sensor
Camshaft position sensor
Transmission mechatronics unit and seal
New torque converter
Trans filter and fluid

And all the regular maintenance stuff like oil changes and brakes and what not. I am still dealing with a issue where even after replacing the mechatronics unit and torque converter, I still have code 4F53 or generic code P0741.

I love the car but damn it’s been expensive since day 1.
