Change or not to change ??
My 40d is 2 1/2 years old, only done 20k miles but thinking about changing for new one, similar spec. Had a chat with a dealer and they have made me a very good offer to p/ex on a few 40d's in stock but I'm guessing that they are not the 2017 spec. I'm just wondering if it's worth waiting for a 2017 ...

EGR Valve Problem
Hello I recently had the EGR valve replaced as my 2014 40d kept clonking out, it just kept losing power and going into limp mode. To be fair BMW came out within 2 hours and replaced the valve no problems. However, and this might be me just imaging this, but since the EGR valve was replaced the feels ...

Correct Tyre Pressures
Hi All I hope that this doesn’t come across as a bit stupid but I’m a little worried about the tyre pressures for my X5 (F15 40d M Sport). The chart on the door indicates 2.2 bar (32psi) front and rear for the tyre size I have, but that seems a bit on the low side. On the tyre pressure info label it ...

Sport mode
I'm more than happy with the 40d M Sport that I got last week, its goes better, looks better and is just overall better than I expected, however one thing that bugs me is that the car always start off in comfort mode, I prefer sport and I just wondered if there was a way of defaulting it to sport ...

Re: Used / Demo Prices
Thanks, I'll get in touch with them. Didnt see anything on their website but will have a chat with them anyway.
I guess its just a case of knocking on as many doors as possible to find the right car.

Used / Demo Prices
So I'm trying to get a deal on a used (f15 X5) dealers keep telling me there's no margin in the cars and the prices on the websites are more or less it. Is this pretty much how it is these days? True to say that the internet has brought transparency to pricing (my business margins have been hit hard ...

30d or 40d
There seems to be not a lot of info out there thats helping me make a choice between a 30d & a 40d. Having driven the previous model 40d and then a new 30d there wasn't (to me) much difference, although I'm told the new 30d & 40d are quite different. I drove a 30d SE again the other day, I loved the ...

Re: Model year 2015 changes query
Do you think it will make much real life difference to the way the X5 drives ? And worth waiting for ? I find this all too confusing

Re: Model year 2015 changes query
I was almost at the point of taking the plunge and buying a used 2013/2014 X5 from a dealer as there a load of 30d models with 2K -10K on the clock but then I read this and wonder if I'm better to wait until then end of the year and get one with the new transmission ? Is it worth waiting for ? I'm ...
