This has me very concerned (especially now reading this thread) that even after the replacement the car could be plagued with this for a long time to come. So, with less than 7k miles left on warranty I am (90% likely) planning to trade. I suppose I could invest in an extended warranty, but I think I'd rather use the cost of an extended warranty and place towards a different car.

Now the question, trade for what?

2013 Xdrive 5.0. 2014 X5 diesel. 2013 or 2014 Cayenne diesel

. . . Are all that might come to mind.
If the dealer replaced the parts, then they used BMW parts. BMW parts carry a two year warranty. If this is the only problem that you have had then I would not get rid of it.
