  1. Thanks for the undivided attention, I said in new to me ,not new !! its a 2006 M sport,pre Idrive.
  2. Do you have a second stick/control which lets you select "How many wheels" you need driven (2 or 4) lol ??? Hi again The short answer is No!!
  3. Hi Dabsy I stand to be corrected (and have rushed out to the car to get the handbook ) but I thought it is permanent 4 wheel drive on an X3, the only switch shown in the handbook is the DSC switch and my one series had one of those and that certainly was not 4 wheel drive. The information about the 4mm tyre tread depth and update came direct from BMW technical department at Bracknell
  4. I have been a BMW owner many years, mt first was in the 70,s which was a 2002,then I had a 2002tii then changed that when the 3 series came out, so my first 3 series was a 320i, after a couple of years I changed it for a 323i and then again changed that for a 328i. We then moved to France (my work sent me there ) and had a few French company cars until I retired and I bought a new 1 series M sport,we returned to UK a couple of years later and I registered my LHD 1 series in the UK ,my wife always wanted a caravan ,so in 2008 we bought one and the 1 series pulled it well ,but I felt it was a bit light for towing . I sold the 1 series via Ebay and it went to Spain, and then bought my new to me X3 3.0 M sport which we are very pleased with and have just returned from a 3 week 2500 mile trip around France with the caravan. The only problem the car seems to have at walking speed is the auto transmission not sure which gear it wants to be in, I understand this is common and its due to the front tyres being more than 4mm more worn than the rears and there is a software upgrade to counteract the proplem. Regards Kerbut.
