Bluetooth Apple CarPlay/Android Auto conundrum- I cannot keep my keys hanging anywhere close to the garage without my X5 stealing my phone calls if I walk past them with my phone in my pocket. Sometimes I’d also like to be able to put my bags in the car before I’m leaving and still remain on my handset until I get in the car. Is there a setting I can toggle to only activate Bluetooth once the car is started and to turn it off when the car is turned off?
The flip side is also less than ideal, with transferring calls back to the handset once turning the vechile off. There should be a button that pops up automatically to toggle back to the handset. Sometimes you want to still sit in the car and finish a call so I get it staying on after you cut the engine but there’s no intuitive way to transfer the call back and forth- or is there and I’ve just missed it? |

I own a 2015 BMW X5 F15 with NBT Id4 Head unit.
Lately I find on the internet (eBay) Retrofits of OEM NBT EVO ID6 Navi Systems and Screens (touch screen) for sale at quite good prices. In case of buying such a package is the overall upgrade possible / easy and also how can the coding be done for the specific car, is there someone who could safely do it remotely? Thank in advance. |

2018 X5 50i 65-78mph vibration
Need assistance with a vibration issue I am having on my vehicle. I've changed transfer case and driveshafts and rear diff. Also swapped wheels/tires and still no change, vibration at the same point. strange my mechanic test drove the vehicle without the exhaust and the vibration is much lighter but still present. once we got to 80 things really started to smooth out.
Caveat I have BC racing coilovers, lowered approx 1.25", so not extreme. Also has magnaflow exhaust, was installed when I purchased the vehicle. I think i may try a new front shaft from dentprotony but still testing a few things first. |

Oil plug on My 2018 X5
I took my car to the dealership for an oil change and was informed that the oil pan plug was stripped. I immediately mentioned that they are the only ones who have serviced my vehicle, and it appears that the technician made an error. The service advisor informed me that BMW cars have an aluminum oil pan, and this problem is quite common and is considered a technical defect with BMW. Has anyone else faced this issue? The cost to replace the pan is almost $5,000.

What's the RPM range when it fluctuate? At cold start, mine goes up to ~1400 RPM and stay there for about ~10 seconds and drops down to ~700 RPM. However there's no vibrations when RPM drops down. I wonder if this is normal or soon i will be having similar problems? FYI Dealer recently changed all spark plugs.

Anyone who can help me with how to solve the component protection?
I'm looking at this code: B7F87A HU-H: Theft-proofing mode active I've found information about the FSC 170 patch but it seems that I also need "matching codes" from BMW? How do I get those? Thx for your help! |

So, regularly, over the past 3 months, the rear suspension has been sagging. Air bags and lines have been checked for leaks, none. Replaced the desiccant in the pump, replaced the pressure relief solenoid (it was defective and stuck open). The sagging doesn't occur over night, sometimes it's when we come to a stop and the engine shuts off (eco). I've seen it go down on my Ring camera over a 5 minute period, first one side then the other. Once deflated, it either needs to sit for a while and reset or it will reset with removal of the fuse and sometimes the relay. The suspension can go for days, sometimes a week, without deflating. Are there any additional modules I should check? The rear position sensor arms are intact and the self leveling between the rear sensors and headlight sensors does work when the pump has to inflate the suspension. I'm concerned that either my battery is going down, some internal software issue is telling it to deflate or there's another module I'm missing in my troubleshooting. It's a 2018 X5 35i M Sport w/ 3rd row seats, 83,000 mile.

xDrive50 F15 - DME & DME2 ECU Errors (Hot Film Air Mass Meter "2")
Hey folks,
I have been experiencing a very bad mileage on my V8 F15, the full tank is barely hitting 450 "km" Plugged ISTA+, and discovered two errors on DME and DME2 with similar message for both "Hot Film Air Mass Meter 2, air filter element 2". Later, looked into DME air mass and DME air mass 2, but readings were almost the same +13 kg/h. Do I have one sensor, i.e: Meter 2 faultly? Should I give it a try and clean it using Air Mass Cleaner? Or is it something else? Attaching the screenshots of ISTA, DME and DME2 Last edited by waelaburezeq; 03-30-2024 at 02:56 PM.. |

I have the same issue on my 2017 X5 with 52k miles. had the transfer box replaced, new high quality Michelin tires and paid an ungodly amount to BMW for a "deep balancing". No joy, small vibration at 78 mph until roughly 84 where it disappears. As you are highlighting, this can quickly become a parts canon situation..kindly report any progress. thanks! |

All,
New to the forum, long time lurker, first time poster. 2017 X5 M50d owner. Owned for nearly two years and love the car. Ticks all the boxes. Have had a previous issue with the infamous "sagging rear end" - deemed to be leaky rear bags (50k and 5 years old, seems to be around the trigger). Bags replaced with Dunlops 3 months ago - no issues since. Until last week. Car was fine. Started her up, sat in to wait for 3/4 minutes to warm up and the rear sagged right to the floor. Almost as if the compressor wasn't working. "Chassis" warning came on screen (not the limited/restriction message, simply "Chassis - get it checked". Took into BMW this morning and they have called stating the compressor needs replacing. Eye watering amount. I am considering moving to springs, front and rear - Eibach seem to be the go to. A couple of questions though; How can I confirm that it is indeed the compressor that has gone? Can my car be converted to spring only? If yes - is any coding required to when removing the air system? Anything else I should be aware of? Thanks a lot! |

2015 BMW X6 F16 - Drivetrain malfunction warning
Hello guys,
2015 BMW X6 F16 xDrive3.5i Recently the car is showing this warning, the warning is not happening all the time, only when I turn on the ignition (without turning on the engine) Warning: Drivetrain malfunction I purchased a Foxwell Diagnostic & Scanner for BMW and when the issue appeared I ran the scanner and it showed: Power Control Unit PCU - Fault1 Error Code: D49405 Description: No message (crash control, 105.0.1), receiver PCU, transmitter ACSM I was searching online about this error code D49405 and I found: Fault Code Conditions: General Conditions Supply voltage between 9 and 16 volts. Terminal Condition Terminal 15 On Terminal Condition PWF status: Driving Terminal Condition PWF status: Residing Driving Conditions Notice: The designations of terminal status or PWF status apply according to the vehicle electrical system. At this point, I ran out of ideas how to pinpoint the module/part causing the issue. This car has 2 batteries, the main one was replaced 3 years ago, the small one will have 10 years soon (I thought it could be related) Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Viktor |
