My X5 is missing features or just basic?
My 2015 X5 35iX doesn't have any door lighting, nor any ambient lighting , its just all covered by plastic and its very dark inside the vehicle at night. It does have footwell light in front but not back. All the icons and dash have orange lightening with two led above the center console. So is this normal for basic model x5 or am i missing features ? do you guys know if bmw does 4 year old upgrades for ambient lighting or am i stuck like this.

Can you send a picture of the options in idrive menu under lighting ?
Also - is this car from a dealership or state auction from law enforcement ? US? |

According to the owners manual
Ambient light Depending on your optional features lighting can be adjusted for some lights in the interior. Selecting color scheme On the Control Display: 1. "Settings" 2. "Lighting" 3. "Lighting design" 4. Select desired setting. To deactivate the ambient light: "Off".

If you don't want us to look it up...you can do it yourself using any of the 3 sites below. Just enter the last 7 digits of your VIN and answer (correctly) the CAPTCHA question or puzzle if it asks. Then scroll down the list to see how your X5 was optioned:

I looked at a lot of them before I bought mine - I never saw one without it and never heard of one either!
Maybe a police version from overseas?!?!? Wild guess of course.

The full interior will help.
