2007 X5:
Switch that triggers warning for low brake-fluid level could malfunction at high temperatures.

The engine can stall in conditions of below-freezing temperatures combined with low humidity, due to electrostatic discharge. Dealers will attach two ground cables in the engine compartment.
2007 w/V8:
In below-freezing temperatures combined with low humidity, electrostatic discharge could occur at fuel rails, possibly causing engine to stall.
2008:
Small number of models were equipped with sport-suspension stabilizer bar rather than a standard stabilizer bar, which could result in oversteer behavior during certain maneuvers, such as fast lane changes at high speed.
2008:
These vehicles were equipped with a sports-suspension stabilizer (antisway bar) rather than a standard suspension stabilizer on the rear axle.
