I have just bought a lovely 2005 X5 e53 3.0d and it's lovely to drive until I get on the motorway and it won't rev past 3800rpm even sat in N it does the same. Surely it can't be a massive issue as it drives so well under that. Has anyone else had an issue like this?

Thanks

Sorry for my first post to be a question

Welcome to the Forum

Could be the fuel pressure sensor, take the engine acoustic cover off on the passenger side of the engine is the inlet manifold plenum. At the back of the plenum you will see a sensor and plug, unplug it if the engine now runs freely through the revs the sensor is probably your issue. If not then a scan is needed to determine just what it is.

Hi Dave it was the fuel filter believe it or not. It looked like the original one from the factory some 17 years ago 😳

Thanks Martin

Welcome to the Forum

The X6 was designated E71 by BMW and made between 2007 and 2014 engines were from 3.0d through to the M5.0 There was a short rum of Hybrid models made for some markets between 2008 and 2011. In 2013 the F15 model was introduced with a similar engine range (though uprated)

If you need more let us know
