for those with an x5m make sure you have an extended warranty.....
Agreed on that.

I recently had an upper oil pan leak on my 50i at 55K miles, dealer wanted $3100 to fix it. Fortunately BMW was in the process of good-willing my value guide seals so the oil pan gasket ended up being a freebie with the engine removed, but it did prompt me to get a warranty for stuff going forward.
