Yes...the f15 X5 uses different sensors vs the e70/e71...its indicated on this BMW wheel size chart below. Although the wheel specs are compatible...the sensors are different.

Since you're new...you may not be aware of the online part database sites (see 3 of my favs below). These sites allow you to look up BMW parts diagrams and part nbrs...they also have a part nbr search feature that reveals compatibility...you can find out if a part is model specific or what other BMW models also use the part nbr.

You can look up the TPMS sensor's part nbr at any of the sites below...then check which BMW models use them (you'll find them in the WHEEL diagrams):

1. BMW Parts Catalog
2. RealOEM.com - Select Your BMW Model
3. https://www.etkbmw.com/ (this site also has a VIN decode feature)
