300,000 miles...I made it!
Just wanted to give you guys some hope. Last night I was driving home from the airport and I hit 300,000 miles. I am still on the original transmission, front and rear diffs, transfer case, motor, & drive line. My repairs have pretty much just normal maintenance and thanks to this website I have been able to take care of most of my repairs. Thank you for all your help. I guess I will continue to drive into the 300,000s... I told my wife once I hit 300,000 I will buy another car, but I will keep my X because she just works so well. I am thinking M5 or X6 50i.

It's been a lot of fun getting to this point. Most of my friends can't believe that the X still runs because of my driving style, but a BMW mechanic told me they engineer these cars to perform and that is the way they should be driven. So that is how I drive mine. I am really amazed that the transmission is holding up for so long. I have never changed the filter or dropped the pan. Once I just drained the fluid and then put in new which really only kinda freshen ups of the old fluid. Funny thing is that I still get a lot of compliments on how nice the X looks, then I tell people it's 9 years old and almost 300,000 and they can't believe it. But for now I will just keep forging ahead.... I am kinda thinking, can it do 400,000? We will see.

Wow that's great . Obviously the forum is here to help others, so posts are going to be mainly about problems, but I was beginning to wonder why I bought it even though it looks and drives like a dream.
There is still hope ! |
