Welcome my first X5 was a 4.4 running LPG loved it. When you brought the car did it come with a service schedule for the LPG? The system should be serviced once a year.You really need dedicated BMW diagnostics they will take a lot of the guess work out.

I take it the car runs well and engine temps are OK. My 4.4 threw up a similar fault it turned out to be a faulty MAP sensor I would get the codes read by a BMW specialist or someone with autologic. I purchased a 1.4.0 scanner and software from flebay and loaded it onto an old laptop I had Brilliant it lets yo do so much and will help you with things like this.

Good Luck
