Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The BMW X5, especially from the 2005 model year, is known for oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets and oil filter housing gaskets. These leaks can lead to a decrease in engine performance and potential engine damage if not addressed.

Cooling system failures

The cooling system components such as the water pump, thermostat, and radiator are prone to failure. Overheating issues can arise, leading to significant engine damage if not properly maintained.

Timing chain issues

The timing chain and its components, such as the tensioner and guides, can wear out prematurely, causing rattling noises and potential engine misalignment, which can severely affect engine performance.

Vacuum leaks

The vacuum hoses and the intake boot are susceptible to cracking and leaking, which can cause rough idling, loss of power, and increased fuel consumption.

Electrical problems

Various electrical issues, including faulty sensors and control modules, can lead to engine performance problems such as stalling, misfires, and poor fuel economy.

Fuel injector problems

The fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to rough engine operation, misfires, and poor acceleration.
