    BMW X5 is an excellent SUV... when its new. When it gets older, its got all sorts of problems, both big and small. AVOID this vehicle

  • Wish i can return it! - 2006 BMW X5
    By -

    Its my first BMW, i was excited at first to drive it but when it reached its 38,000 miles it gave me a lot of trouble, engine wouldnt start at all. Dealer changed the alternator and battery. Every time I drive this car Im nervous because it might cause trouble again. NO DOUBT it happened again today after 5 months with 43,000 miles, the car stop at the road during winter time while Im driving, unable to start it, tried multiple times, battery is totally dead and it has to be towed again in the dealership. This is my only car and I used it for work, Im totally upset about its inconvenience! I wish I can return this car to BMW, its a lemon car!
