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.

Mine was 119k and had the gearbox done all ready. There's a few minor things but in the whole great car.

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

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.
