If you go into the n52 section they will tell you how it is the most reliable engine ever while shitting on the s65 and n54 for reliability. I swear half the active threads in the n52 section are for maintenance issues.

I am surprised BMW put the n52 engine in the x5. I test drove one before picking up the 335D X5. Very underpowered. Hell the e9X with the n52 feels underpowered and sluggish that I had. My deleted m57 gets better mpg and is 100x more fun to drive. Cost was basically the same I was only looking at LCI e70s.

I think you should sell the x5 with the blown motor to me. I will find it a good home.
