usually modern diesels don't need to wait but tbh in conditions that aren't common to the UK (EG -12 degree's) you may have to give it a second lol

tbh I have never heard of them coming off Man up dude! live life in the moment! lol

prefer the silver logo but looking good fella

4.4i X5 wow someones either got a big wallet or their own oil rig! lol welcome to the forum lol

welcome

oh dear tbh clutches either work.....or don't work so tbh it probbably a spot of bad luck

this really tickled me today...

32. The multiple 'auto heater/AC combinations at start-up' memory options are nifty. havent used the word "Nifty" in years! .......will have to slip that into a conversation tomorrow lol

honestly the engines are usually pretty sound in a smaller / lighter car like a 3 / 5 series but theres a lot more factors in the X5 range, much heavier car and the difference in aerodynamics make a huge difference to mpg

tbh I would say its the glow plugs turn the key and wait til the glow plugs light goes off....wait another 10-20 seconds then try it give them a proper boi. I have had the exact same issue on my old 306. When were they last changed? might be an idea to replace them

I thought swirl flaps were only present on the X5's?

Ive said it before and I'll say it again Why put new tyres on in "drift season"

tbh I aint sure of the make of my tyres they're the locals budgets at £50 a corner my tyres sizes are 225 / 45 / 18 on a track day I'd end up upgrading the rubber but for road use where the car doesn't get too hammered and require the limits of grip on every corner. Not gone off the road yet but I guess I havent pushed my luck far enough then lol

welcome fella

that really confused me lol my friend has a 5 door and his seats dont fold i was like WHOA?!?! WHY?!?!? lol damn you BMW! lol

ooh err sounds technical there fella hmmm good luck with it

no worries fella let us know how you get on

Some 4 door saloons come with seats that don't fold down the tourer seats were built to fold down so its more van like.....you may have a trouble there tbh other than that i cant see why not.

wow tbh all seem wear and tear bits, they would need changing at some point so cant complain. I give up spending crazy money on tyres nowadays, all well and good but for day to day use cheap tyres are just as good cheap michelins would do the same job unles your running it on track days every weekend. plus you dont mind so much when you do give it some beans because the tyres didn't cost you so much lol

1. ANDY MCQ 2. GAV 3. GREENEY 4...... I'm always up for some camping.......as long as there are one or two lagers envolved! lol

very nice! welcome to the club

welcome

welcome to the club, tbh best bet is to call one out to have a look at the car, your under no obligation to pay them until they start working on it and ask for their opinion first to see what they can do.

no worries buddy put some pics up of the process and let us know how it goes

sounds to me like its having trouble reading the DVD, is the nav disk scratched? have you tried a cd lens cleaner? might be first point of call, is the disk a few years out of date and needs a new one? Dont some of the 5's have auto traffic updates? if this is the case and you have an out dated disk you would get an error as per the passenger sensor i have no idea sorry fella
