REPLACE RADIATOR

Contamination in coolent system
The brown sludge is what coolant looks like when it breaks down, this stuff usually accumulates in the coolant recovery tank, have a good professional flush done where the block is pressure flushed and wash out the recovery tank with hot water and detergent.

I have a air lock in my bwm and it keeps over heating
you'll want to make sure that all the air spaces have been removed from the coolant system. Sometimes you have to add coolant thru the upper radiator hose.
What also works is to install a prestone flush kit. It will allow you to run water under pressure to the entire system.

My car keeps on pulling
Could be a brake issue (have you changed your brake pads in a while?)
Could be an alignment issue. (Have you put new tires or shocks on recently?)
Could also be a tire inflation issue.

My 2001 x5 wont start nothing wrong with battery or starter
it
just wont turn over or crank
You can have a problem with the shifter cable. It will only allow it to crank and start if it's in Park or Neutral and it may not think it is. Move shifter through its gears one at a time and see if it tries to crank. That is assuming it's an automatic transmission. If it's a manual it could be a clutch pedal switch. Could even be a starter relay or loose wiring between relay and starter. Good luck.
How to Reset airbag light on 2002 bmw x5
The SRS light is on because the airbag system has developed a fault and is turned off. When the problem that caused this is diagnosed and repaired the light will extinguish itself. Right now you have no airbag protection in a crash, this could cause you serious injury or ***** how much is your life worth, get it repaired. I remember well the horrible damage to the human body before safety features like Airbags and collapsible steering columns to list a few, it was not pretty.
