I also need a hitch to carry 5 bikes in my 2016 x5 Msport...so i found in ebay from BMWof sarasota the crossbeam for $300 and the 2"adapter for $185..(just got them) and went to bmw to get 6 white pins for the flares $5.... installation free..
. so for $490 is not bad to carry some bikes around sometimes...
The installation doesn't seem hard (if you are good with tools) so i also downloaded de bmw instructions. Just make sure to have a few beers ;-) and time... will attempt to install it tomorrow night..will post some pics later
