Hello, I have just purchased an X5 40 xdrive. I am not sure what to make of it yet. I have owned many BMW cars for a long time and X5 is my first 4x4 from this manufacturer.I find fuel efficiency a bit bad. BMW advertises 37.7 mpg but I get 15 mpg. I consider my self to be a safe driver. i find the difference between what they advertise and what I get a bit high.

I also own a mercedes CLS 350 CDI which gives me 35 to 40MPG which is very close to what they advertise.

Can someone please share their thoughts with me.

Thanks

A

      Tyres..what's the best alternative to run flats

      Hi guys, appreciate this topic is a bit dated, but within 6 months of owning my X3 M40d on 21" factory fitted run flats, and the state of our A & B roads, I've shelled out £700 on TWO tyres, due to the sidewall rupturing, leaving me stranded roadside and in need of a flatbed...not good. I'm looking for a back-up plan as we tour long distances on holiday and found an X3 space saver, claiming it fits all size wheels. BMW dealer was vague when I asked if it would fit....no surprise. The Wheel Shop said...check with the dealer. Wondering if anyone out there has more experience. Thanks all 19" BMW X3 G01 | Space Saver Wheel | The Wheel Shop

      Discs and pads

      Hi Dave, I’ve actually gone for EBC grooved discs with yellowstuff pads. Just thought it would look a little beefier whilst still benefitting from good performance and longevity. Stu👍
