OK-that seems to have solved it-mine does not have a towbar-so nothing is missing-thanks for the help chaps!
-
Car does not have a towbar-keep the ideas coming!!
-
I'll check tomorrow-still open to ideas?
-
-
Anyone else got any ideas?
-
My jack is clipped against the back of the boot-so can't be that-unless I have 2 jacks!!
-
I've an E53 54 plate-what tool is missing from here? It's on the left hand side looking forwards and it's towards the rear of the car.
-
My computer is saying "side light bulb needs replacing"-(front bulb gone-passenger side)-is this a DIY job or do I need to take it to a garage as its Xenon headlights? :(

I bought a 4.8is a few months ago and it has been a great car with absolutely bags of power. I've had BMWs for 20 years now and this is the best one I've had.In the past I've had Alpinas (4.6 b10v8 and a C2 2.7) 540 estate,a couple of shark nosed 635s and a few 3 series. They cost a bit more than your average X5 to buy but I'm sure it would be worth it-happy hunting!

I need to top up my engine oil (4.8is). I think the previous owner used Castrol Edge 5w30. What do you recommend?
-
Sorted !!!! It was the SATNAV- I had changed it so that it picked up all Speed cameras--reversed it back so that no speed cameras detected and hey presto!!! Job done !!!
-
Bought a set of Michelin Latitude Diamaris-according to Blackcircles they are the only ones that BMW recommend. Cost me £1000--the front and back are the same price through Blackcircles at the moment-2 weeks ago the rears were about £50 a tyre dearer!!!!

Tried both of those but cannot get any menu which says "change language". Anyone got any more ideas?----Take it to a main dealer?

I've recently bought an X5 4.8is and the computer is in FRENCH ! Sacre blue !! Instead of saying Hour it says "Heure" etc. I've looked through the booklet on the computer and it says that I should be able to change the language--but I cannot find it--there does not seem to be a heading for it. Anyone got any ideas????
