2006 BMW X5 4.8is Sport Utility 4-Door 4.8L
2006 BMW X5 4.8is Sport Utility 4-Door Description
I've decided to sell my 2006 BMW X5 4.8iS. The car is enthusiast owned and tastefully modified. I'm selling because I have leased a vehicle for my wife who has driven the car for the last two years. The car was purchased with 59k from a dealer in NC and driven back to Boston by me. I have performed EXTENSIVE maintenance on this car from day one of purchase.A lot of the maintenance and repairs were done mostly because of my OCD. For those of you who don't know the 4.8iS was BMWs top of the line SUV from 2004-2006 it was the replacement for the 4.6iS and is a very fun car to drive.
I am not a fan of the factory air suspension so I replaced it with adjustable BCcoilovers. The coilovers were installed at 62k and rebuilt 1500 miles ago (four new shocks, new camber plates up front, and new lower bodies in back). I also replaced all ofthefront and rear control armsalong with ball joints at the time of the suspension rebuild (entire suspension has less then 2k on it). The car is coded for windows up with remote and comes with two keys.
Last month I rebuilt the panoramic roof using factory parts and performed a cooling system overhaul. I also had the front end resprayed and the useless/broken headlight washers shaved off the bumper.
I would put the x5 up against any on the market as far asmaintenance goes. I don't have an exact mileage breakdown of work performed but thefollowing has been replaced (in order from most recent to oldest as best as I can remember)
