problem #1

Feb 182012

X5 Sport Package 4.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 27,540 miles

A block away from a friends house, the x5 steering wheel was turning around, but not controlling the x5 correctly and sensors started to light up on the dash. Once my family and I were ready to leave, the x5 wouldn't start. Tow truck driver attempted to jump start, but couldn't. X5 had to be towed to dealer for the repair. Originally the alternator was tested before and was fine, but this time around it threw some type of fault code. Remanufactured alternator installed and CPO covered it.
