Would you touch this M w/ a 10-ft pole? Or am I over-reacting?

So I'm looking at used X5M's; the dealer selling one I'm looking at was kind enough to e-mail the service records to me. One thing stood out in the record: The following was documented twice, initially at 48 miles & more recently at 20,7xx miles:

"Leak at oil pan/gasket, automatic transmission leaking"

I like the options & ext/int colors. The car currently has less than 21,000 miles & has about 2 yrs & 4 mo's remaining on its warranty. Would this scare you away? Should I keep looking?

TIA.

It would probably scare me away...I would try and find something certified -- if they even certify "M" cars anymore?
