2001 BMW X5 3.0 Parts
Hello all I have a few pieces of my 2001 X5 3.0 I’m hoping to pass on too somebody else. Unfortunately the car decided after less then a month of ownership that it was going to set itself on fire. Cause being the recalled blower motor wiring harness. I’m not upset at the car or at BMW as I should have checked the recalls upon buying it. However as we are all aware — there probably isn’t anything more expensive and frustrating then a cheap BMW I paid 900$ CAD for it- didn’t have it long enough to really dive deep into it some of the surface problems were things such as ball joints, an oil leak (shocking)
Coolant tank needed replacing etc. It was shocking to say the least as I have never even seen a car on fire before let alone MY car .. parked right next to my house. Anyway on fire for less then 5 minutes and everything inside was a total loss. The smell. So this is m friendly reminder to all the early X5 owners — please— go get that replaced or at least check on it so you don’t lose yours in the way I lost mine. The fire remained in the cab and didn’t get into the engine bay as far as I’m aware. The car itself is gone as I sold it to the scrapyard as in the moment I was so heartbroken and angry with it, I didn’t want to look at it anymore… or smell it. So these are just a couple things I thought I would take off in case anybody needed them. Thanks in advance- would be shipping from Alberta Canada.
