In this video I walk through the common issues to look for when considering buying an #E53 #X5 BMW SUV. This was BMW's first SUV ever! This "SAV" as BMW called it was a "Sport Activity Vehicle" not an "SUV". In this video I review the basic things to look for in the exterior, interior and engine and transmission while shopping for a cheap used X5 of this generation.

2005 4.4i owner here. had mine 7 years. i’ve done everything you can imagine. valve seals, coolant transfer pipe, you name it. still love the car and still cheaper than a $700 a month car payment for a new car with the same features

@scottw5315 17 күн бұрын

Valve stem seals cost me $4500. Coolant transfer pipe was just done by a friend and $200 part. Door handles, window regulators, brake booster, transfer case, AC which I think just needed a charge which I tried to do myself and did it wrong, they got me for $2000. I've spent 20k in eleven years. I did a few jobs myself in particular the brake booster that the dealer wanted $3500 to repair. It's been frustrating but it drives amazing and there is nothing else on the market that catches my eye.

I own a '05 X5 since new. N62. Pretty shitty that you only point out negatives. What about the positives? Great community over at xoutpost, really not too many problems aside from regular maintenance (cooling system), suspension, brakes, etc. Im on original door handles & regulators. Pano & auto fold in mirrors work. Transfer case gear never replaced. Parts relatively cheap. The only, & only thing this car hit us with was the valve stem seals. When this was addressed the timing cover gaskets were also resealed. This is an amazing car if you can DIY & it drives awesome. No TPMS sensors, no need to register the battery, simple macpherson suspension. Dont get the impression that I baby the car either. I abuse the daylights out of it, infact if you see an idiot in one around NYC, its more then likely me...

I have a 20 year old X5 and the original bowden cables haven't stretched and haven't been replaced until the carrier metal actually snapped due to fatigue from all the years of being opened. The bigger problem is the spring on the door lock catch, it rusts and breaks making the cable feel like it isn't working properly, a quick inspection of the lock mechanism will usually show if the spring is there or not as it needs to keep tension on the ball joint that the bowden cable connects to or the cable will not 100% do its job correctly plus over time the lock mechanism stops springing open as you pull either the handle or where the cable connects showing that the lock mechanism should be replaced so it springs open correctly instead of relying on the door being pulled to release the mechanism.

One question for you: Is it worth going for an E70 as opposed an E53 these days? What would the benefits be to the E70? I absolutely love the styling (and relative simplicity) of the E53, and am considering that route.That said, I appreciate your opinion!

@BIMMERZEITT Жыл бұрын

It depends, you can find bargain E53 pricing still out there. The E70 is usually 2X the initial purchase price. The F15 that came in 2014+ is again often 2X the price of an E70. Yet the E70 and F15 share the same chassis. Drive both… we like the E70 much much better. But it is so far proving to be a money pit like the rest of them. And 16.3 MPG to boot.

In Indonesia, the X5 E53 with M54 engine is considered alot more durable engine compare to X5 E70 engine eventhough the the X5 E70 is more expensive than X5 E53. Do you think it is true that the X5 E53 s more durable engine? Thank you

@BIMMERZEITT 11 ай бұрын

Hi, I think they are both pretty comparable in terms of reliability and robustness. The m54 is prone to consuming oil when worn or if neglected. I believe the n52 is an upgrade in many ways (have one in our e70 now). I’d be happy to own either engine personally; just buy the car in the best condition you can find with records.

Over $1000 for brake line replacements, holy hell, what are they, gold plated!!! I can replace all my brake lines for less than £200 GBP, even buying from a dealer the pre made brake lines will not set me back more than £400 GBP and it isn't just salt from roads that is the issue, brake fluid is hygroscopic and the lines can rot from the inside out which is usually the case as the factory paint on the brake lines is pretty thick. I can actually make copper brake lines for around £60 for the whole vehicle.

@BIMMERZEITT 8 ай бұрын

The brake line costs are replacements from two separate brake line failures if I recall correctly. That is like two $400+ repair bills at a local shop who replaced the rotted section for us. Can't always DIY when you and your spouse both work full time. Sometimes just have to pay the shop. The E53 has a known design flaw where the plastic trim covering brake lines traps salty water from heavily salted New England roads and eats them alive.

But seriously man look around more for better DIY ideas, lots of parts can be rebuilt and components replaced.

These cars should be appriceated more, they are fun and truly an one time experience.

Lexus can't compare in performance. Not a worthy replacement.

I did not know repainting a car is bad,why look for repainting??

@BIMMERZEITT 2 жыл бұрын

Depends. An original car with no accident history is always better, and will demand a higher price. Cars with accident history will be worth less. Some cars have no reported accident history (clean CarFax, for example) but that just means it wasn't reported through insurance. So you can look for tell-tale signs of paint work. The issue is, most repairs are not done properly or well. Better to seek out a 100% original car, if your budget allows.

You forgot to mention the buckets in the rear side compartments, they rot out and the sub frames are pathetic and also rust pretty badly. Automatic gearboxes are GM units and chocolate is stronger. Only buy manual, V8 have issues with oil stem seals which is an engine out job, 3.0 petrol is pathetically powerless and you are far better off with the 3.0 diesel. Wow, considering I have had mine 6 months and can pull your issues apart what have you been doing while owning yours for 5 years, making bad content and misinforming your viewers!
