    Help Needed Asap Smoking X5 Diesel

    ckc100 replied to X5 dsport's topic in BMW X5 Series Forum
    What colour of smoke is that you are getting? I have not seen the problem myself with mine, but past experience might make me think if it's white grey I would be checking the water levels might be head, but probably unlikely. You could always try a fuel additive if it's black smoke. I use to swear by Milner diesel fuel cleaner when I worked in the trade.

    Thinking Of An X5 3D Auto

    ckc100 replied to jrmurray's topic in BMW X5 Series Forum
    Personally I would say that the gearbox is the thing to watch on them, when I was looking it seems to be from about 90k onwards they seem to need a box overhaul. Mine had been done and goes great.

    Buying X5 With High Mileage

    ckc100 replied to euroBen's topic in BMW X5 Series Forum
    Mine was 119k and had the gearbox done all ready. There's a few minor things but in the whole great car.

    Brake Lining Warning Light

    ckc100 posted a topic in BMW X5 Series Forum
    Hi folks, The brake lining warning light came on in the X5, so I ordered the brake pads front and back and fitted them today. Both sets were down to the wear indicator so changed front and back. So thinking that was it sorted I still find the warning light in the dash illuminated. So is there anything else I should be looking for or do I need to reset something to get rid of the light and the warning? Cheers Charlie
