I took my 2013 x3 into the shop and with the codes that he was pulling the mechanic has said that it is more than likely a timing chain issue. That alone to repair is 4000 there is also another issue that is about 800 to repair if that is a problem. My boyfriend is really encouraging me to let this car go and trade-in and get something more reliable like a Toyota. I don't want to because I love my X3 but I also have to be realistic. I am one that will drive a vehicle until it doesn't drive anymore and then I get a new one. I guess I am trying to decide whether or not it is worth it to sink money into this vehicle or not. it has 116000 miles on it it 10 years old. and in this economy my choices for used cars are not that great. Any advice or recommendations is appreciated.
