Uhh, I'm no mechanic but I don't think any vehicle is supposed to bounce front to back 3x. I have not experienced what you have but its probably your shocks/struts. This is not scientific but try the bounce test. Try to bounce each corner of the X. When you let go it should not keep bouncing excessively.

I always thought thats the way it is supposed to be but I was curious how other X5s are. My previous car was an 05 Audi A6 and it was no where near as bumpy.
With my head resting on the headrest and driving on the expressway I noticed that even a little road imperfection causes my head as well as my passenger to bounce off the headrest. In addition I noticed that when slowing down to a full stop the car slightly bounces front to back about approx 3 times. Although its slight I was wondering if anyone else has this experience.
Can anyone comment on this experience before I go to a used car dealer to pretend to purchase an X5 and take it for a test drive for comparison.
I feel like the cars mileage is too low for suspension issues.
Thanks
