The fan is selected on, but there is no air coming from the vents?

Final stage resistor (blower resistor). It involves removing 1 philips head screw, popping 2 small panels out of your way, and removing/unplugging the resistor. I can probably do one on a X5 in 2 minutes......any first time compotent 'DIY' person should be able to knock it out in 10 minutes or so.

Thats exactly what everyone is saying, where could I order the part? I don't like dealing with ebay, but am open to all other options. Where is the resistor located?

Take it to optimusprimer, or shoot me a PM and I'll do it for you. I believe the resistor is around $150, maybe a little less.

$74.95

here is the part number you need #: 64 11 6 923 204 (64116923204)

trade it in for an Infiniti FX45. Go faster, look better, handle better, and LAST LONGER.
