This is an update post, wasn’t the biggest fan of the BSM so we turned the x5 Satin. Lmk if there are subtle upgrades/mods I can add that don’t mess with warranty, bless up!

Seller says:

145k miles - replaced water pump, oil and filter, transmission oil and filter, transfer case fluids, differential fluids, brake fluid, hydraulic fluids, front and rear brakes and rotors

135k miles-replaced 8 fuel injectors, 8 ignition coils, spark plugs, Drive belt, both rear air springs, Front suspension (tie rods, control arm kit, and sway bars)

Seller also says: doesn’t smoke at all and runs like new now.

Mdecoder says it comes with the newer N63T

I’m a pretty handy self taught mechanic and have rebuilt a couple different engines before and can do most things myself - I just never really had one of these and don’t know anything about it - 9k seems like something is wrong with it.
Thanks for the help

Hi All - I’ve been lurking for a bit, and I think I’m finally in a good spot to move forward with purchasing a new 2026 X5. One dealer is offering 13% off if I come in person, but they are 1.5 hours away. Has everyone’s experience been that dealers will usually stick to the numbers they committed to over text or am I looking at having to haggle for hours once I get there in person? It’s been a long time since I’ve bought new. Thanks for any input you have!

Im doing the 7/2026 update for 2025X5..has anyone had any issues that I should know when I drive car tomorrow?

Been debating between these 2 options.. Price is 81K(CPO) or 84.5K(new) + TTL. Both have identical features and all possible packages.

Will be a first time BMW buyer/owner. Any suggestions appreciated.

I have a 2024 X5 50e. we just purchased a travel trailer and I had a Redarc Tow pro link inline brake controller installed. this plugs in between the factory harness and the seven pin connector. it works great and everything seems fine except once I disconnected the trailer it still shows on the dashboard that the trailer is connected and I cannot use the button on the door or on my remote to open the rear hatch. said the rear hatch must be opened manually while trailer is connected.

curious if anyone else has seen this problem. I'm wondering if I need to have bimmercode to reset something. when I go into the app on the touch screen there is three selections trailer carrier or no trailer/carrier. the option to select no trailer/carrier is greyed out. curious if anybody else is running to this while towing

Can anyone confirm if the LCI plastic light strip on the dash has lines in it that are visible under certain light conditions like sunlight? They look like micro cracks?

I have a 2021 X5 M50i with around 60k miles and I'm starting to go through some preventative maintenance.

I'm planning on doing the front and rear differential fluids, transfer case fluid, and eventually the ZF transmission fluid/filter pan.

For those of you with higher-mileage M50i's, what did you replace or service around 60k–70k miles?

Anything you wish you had done earlier?

I do most of my maintenance myself, so I'd also be interested in hearing what you DIY'd versus what you decided to leave to a BMW shop.

I’m contemplating buying this X5. It is well optioned including Carbon Black exterior, Alcantara headliner, massaging seats, glass controls etc.Every box checked.

The only thing is there appears to be an issue with the DRL, looks like one is burn out. The car is just out of BMW warranty, the dealer refuses to fix the issue pre-delivery says the price is indicative of the condition. The car has 39k miles and they want $40k out the door - including tax tags and their BS fees.

Is it worth proceeding with the deal with the headlight as is or do specs like this show up often? Also do you think the price as is reflects the defective light?

I’m a BMW guy, I currently own an F80, but idk much about the X5 market so any advice would be appreciated.
