Possible 2009-10 X5 purchase. Require education

Guys,

I'm in the market for used X5 (one preferably with factory warranty remaining). That being said, what are some of the common problems to look out for?

I'm specifically looking at the 2009-10 years. Any specific engine to avoid? I did my share of research on edmunds which shows a fair amount of TSBs and recalls on this generation.

Thanks!

The '10 Idrive is a lot better. Other than that, you will find people with problems and people without...like me. Get a CPO vehicle if you are worried. A '10 should have factory warranty as well.

I picked up a 2010 40d M Sport back in May. Just had the rear camera & harness replaced under warranty today because it was blacking out every now and then. Other than that I love it. 9 l/100 around town is great too.
