In my research ("MY" stands for "model year"): - All MY2012+ X5s have LED coronas - MY2011 x5 diesels with build date 4/11 or later have LED coronas. - NO MY2011 X5 non-diesel has a build date of 4/11 or later. |

Got the car back today and drove few miles...coolant everywhere. This dealer is the worst! BMW of Sterling, you suck! They left my M6 in shambles week before, which they still haven't fixed

So with about a month's ownership, decide to throw in the towel on the X5. I am planning on going back to Mercedes. It has been a roller coaster of a ride with this X5.

You must have missed my other posts in this thread? 2012MY production began 4/11 (technically end of March 2011) for the gas models only. BMW didn't decide to just add LED coronas to diesels only…the difference is 2012MY diesels didn't start until 8/11. Therefore diesels built between 4/11 and 8/11, which were still 2011MY, got the LED coronas as all models got those starting 4/11. There's numerous diesel members here with build dates in that range with LED coronas, and they're 2011MY.

What happened? Was it the dealer you have to deal with or the actual X? It seemed like that dealer did the N63 campaign kinda quick. I thought it is suppose to be over 30 hours of crap to check, test, etc?

It was combination of both. I am a very impatient person especially when it comes to cars. First the dealer was the problem then turned out to be small little gremlins happening. It seems fine now after spending $2500 to fix the FRM module, RDC? Module and reprogramming the entire car which WASN'T covered under warranty
