You also need winter tires for the X5M, otherwise it wont drive in the snow that good.

2001-03 Infiniti QX4 - $8-12k with less than 100k on them and they will last you for many years with only oil changes. It will also be a legit winter vehicle that you can get some real utility out of.

Spend a little more and you will be fine. I spent 17,400 on my daily driver, not an xi, 48,000 miles and I live in Chicago without snow tires. I made it through the winter!

Also, for most BMW problems start off by scanning your car with the Peake Research Tool. It contains the actual BMW codes. If you want to register a newly installed battery for free (just buy a $10 cable) and google/download BMWLogger
