Replying to: bodble2 (Sep 09, 2008 5:53 pm) ". . .will store a set of tires for you at their dealership full-time.... for an annual rent of around $300."   Who knew?   It's a P. T. Barnum moment.
#3143 of 3287 Got our X3! by bmwguys Sep 13, 2008 (5:34 am)
Got our X3 last night! This is our 2nd BMW ... also have a matching 06 330xi in the garage (I know, obnoxious). The X3s19in wheels/tires are indeed monsters ... following behind it last night I couldn't believe how wide they are! The wheels look awesome though. And the sport package seats might even be more comfortable than the ones in the 330 ...   I'm amused by all the touch signaling posts I've seen ... our sales person is fabulous, and has sold BMWs for 20 years, and still didn't know about it. Glad we weren't scared of the owners manual ... the instructions to set up touch signaling are on page 42, which then refers you to page 18. It's part of the vehicle and key memory set-up.   Tap, blink, blink, blink ... it's all good! Replies to this message: bodble2 (Sep 14, 2008 8:00 pm) bmwguys (Sep 15, 2008 3:30 am)

Replying to: bmwguys (Sep 13, 2008 5:34 am) An X3 and a 330.....how would that be a matching set? Replies to this message: bmwguys (Sep 15, 2008 3:30 am)

Replying to: bodble2 (Sep 14, 2008 8:00 pm) LOL ... ok, I'll give you that. They're the same color, and both are all wheel drive BMWs, but they don't REALLY match.
#3146 of 3287 Congrats! by nyccarguy Sep 15, 2008 (6:57 pm)
on your new X3! My wife's '07 is a little over a year old and we've got over 20K miles on it. We're still loving it!
#3148 of 3287 Re: X3 2004 Creaking Noise & Mix Tires problems [mohannad] by jed Sep 26, 2008 (9:50 pm)
Replying to: mohannad (Aug 12, 2008 3:20 am) If you enter "jed" you will find a number of old messages, one of which refers to "Jimbob " (to the best of my recollection) having provided info re a fix for the creaking. He had an exact number for the dealer's reference. We took it in and it was fixed under the warranty--which you might not have at this point (ours expired in June).
#3149 of 3287 What to do? by unbelievable1 Sep 27, 2008 (8:37 pm)
We are considering buying either a 06 325i or a 05 or 06 X3 from Carmax. I know these are completely different vehicles but we could really go either way. My husband likes the idea of the 325 but sometimes may need a SUV. After reading some post about 06 325 run flat tires, we are wondering if that is not the way to go. We just went through a horrible situation with an 03 Land Rover Freelander and we don't want to jump into another mess. By the way, no one should ever buy a Land Rover. They do not stand by their customers (long story, check out LR Freelander on Edmunds if your interested). We thought BMW would be a fun Car/SUV but just want to stay clear of major issues.

Replying to: unbelievable1 (Sep 27, 2008 8:37 pm) My wife has driven a 2004 X3 2.5 since December 2005. It now has 70,000 miles on the clock and it looks and runs like new. A passenger seat SRS sensor was replaced under warranty, it needed tires at around 50,000 miles and a four wheel brake job at 60,000 miles. It's been a good little truck.
