BMW N63:
"In December 2014, BMW North America released a voluntary recall ("Customer Care Package") relating to issues with timing chain stretch, fuel injectors, mass air flow sensors, crankcase vent lines, battery, engine vacuum pump, low pressure fuel sensor and revising the oil service interval."

Yeah cheers for that mate. If you read MY post, you’ll find that despite the fact that I was referring to the diesel, I was speaking in general terms about X5’s and not specifically the engine. Dynamically they are excellent regardless of motor choice but they all do not age gracefully. It doesn’t matter which engine you buy, the vehicle around it is the same.

Looks like my qualified answer has been somewhat corroborated with the wiki page above.. There’s the answer. Don’t buy one.

Was that right after the bit where you said most of what people said about BMW's was rubbish from jaded Falcon owners?
