I guess. You're still enjoying wrenching which I lost my patience with some time ago. Love the way they drive but like a slutty girl, she'll disappoint you eventually.
Maybe. I had a 3 a while back. Doors wouldn't stay closed below 10 degrees. I had to use a tie down strap until the interior heated up. True story. Wire in the sunroof broke. Parts to fix were $1200. Cranked it closed manually and disabled the power. Fixed. Had an X5 for quite a while that was pretty flawless tho. I was and am an Audi guy. Since 83 have had one most of the time.
True or a good mechanic who knows the foibles.
