  1. Off topic, but did anyone buy any of the connected drive packages? I.e connected drive booster package, useful? Was thinking of buying a map update(not sure if part of booster package)or getting an independent to install android auto
  2. Set to auto edrive , I reckon 16km to 18km for me Costs me 4.80 euro a day to keep it on full battery I have started putting it in esave mode , to see if it is more cost efficient using petrol, it is costing me over 6 euro to go back and forth 30km to the child minder on auto edrive Maybe max edrive may be the cheaper option As far as I can see the only benefit of the 40e is the cheaper motortax , battery is a gimmick in them 45e or new 50e seem to make sense on paper , 50e is a claimed 100 plus km on a charge
  3. Also in Ireland, Same issue , first time happening today after 1 year of ownership, 2016 X5 40e. Just serviced by main dealer last week Was sitting for 24 hours, in electric mode, ICE kicked in from cold (light throttle), huge plum of white smoke covering the car behind, hopefully just condensation in the exhaust Do not like the idea , stone cold engines kicking in and being asked to load up , oil intervals of 30k km; When you are out of warranty issues will arise to wear n tear Did anybody figure out a possible cause , fix? I sitll need to try and replicate , see if I can get any smell from the smoke
