We have had two E70 x5s. One 2008 3.0, and our current 2012 x5 35d. We bought the 2012 CPO with 18k on it. At 30k, we got rod knock (4 days after dealer oil change). A new engine was required and there were none to be had worldwide. It took 50 days to get our car back. BMWNA is awful. We tried to get them to buy back, but they refused. On the flipside, the car drives and tows great. My wife loves the torque, she also loves turbo lag on/off switch.

Be careful out of warranty, we would have been out at least 20k for a new motor.
