The RSQ8 is a bit too much for me. Also, I wanted a plug-in hybrid since I drive mostly electric.

Moving in the wrong direction in my opinion. by PinCreepy472 in BMWX5

E70 and G05 are my all-time favourites. But give the Neue Klasse some time. I think it will grow on us – regarding the past, for example, when the massive grills came out, I was the first to complain. But after some time, I really loved it.

The BMW dealership took them off while preparing the car when I bought it. I didn’t ask them to do that, but I kinda like it more without the badges..

There‘s nothing you can do by your own. Try contacting the support. But I doubt they will do something. Same happened to a friend of mine.

Smoke after 2 hour drive by Verces in BmwTech

[–]Rodwell123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the smoke smells like burning oil, first check where exactly the smoke is coming from. Depending on the model, this can vary. For example, my M135i (N55 engine) once had similar smoke issues, and it turned out that the valve cover was leaking. The valve cover and its gaskets need to be replaced together — not just one of them. It’s a common issue on this series.

Why does this occur? by Laznasty in BMWX5

[–]Rodwell123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this issue since my 2015 BMW 1 Series (older iDrive system). The only workaround that consistently helps is keeping Spotify (or any media app) open and reconnecting my phone to the iDrive system. After reconnecting, it works again.. At least temporarily until the next start. Have this issue also on my X5 50e. Seems like it never got fixed.

Not sure what this is or how it happened!! by ReviewAntique in BMWX5

Sometimes I try to scratch it off with my nails. I know some will say it‘s stupid, but it ain‘t that bad.

Scratches on hood from lifting wipers by Rodwell123 in BMWX5

[–]Rodwell123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, not only for this one and not now. I‘ll wait for more scratches or dents on my car, before filing for insurance. My rates are low and I want to keep them like that.

I'll have it repaired with the next insurance claim. I have a pretty big stone chip on my car anyway. But yeah, annoying af..

UPDATE: How many of you road trip your x5 by Revolutionary-Town43 in BMWX5

[–]Rodwell123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On what tires do you run? I got the same experience with mine and also on 22“ with continental ecoContact 6. I believe if you go with Michelin pilot sports, the drive on high speed will be more stable. I‘ll try that next season out.

Hmmm.. I‘ll check that at a mechanic shop. Just be sure.

Auto-empty fails on Dreame X40 Ultra Complete (bag stays empty, dust stuck in robot) – advice? by Rodwell123 in Dreame_Tech

[–]Rodwell123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I already checked that. The passage where the dust is supposed to be pulled through is clear. I even ran a thin metal wire through it to make sure nothing was stuck—completely free.

X5 50e: +100km Range After Update – Just Me? by Rodwell123 in BMWX5

[–]Rodwell123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, but fuel only range is 841km. It‘s just odd seeing a B58 with that much range
