X5///M - Underneath Pics

HIRISC · #1 10-07-2009, 07:15 PM

Was detailing the rockers of the X up on the lift and thought I'd take a look at the underneath.

Pretty impressive (and clean for the moment) technologically under there. The oil change looks simple (even if it's included in the first 4 years), but the suspension is not for non-trained.

The exhaust looks like it could be pricey to replace. We'll see

Won't stay clean for very long around here. Where you live too

I ran out of garage space last year and the best solution (and a good excuse) was to get a four post lift. It's awesome for detailing, storage, and wrenching on cars that I can still work on (not the X5///M).

Agreed! I never thought I'd use a lift as much as I do! Simple things like swirl mark removal, waxing are SO much easier - my knees thank me daily, haha.

Thanks for the pics! Until our X6M arrives, we will have to live vicariously through you and the other lucky ones who have already taken delivery..... *green with envy*

Looks like you have a couple of other toys to keep you entertained til the next /// shows up

Do you have a delivery date (range)?

My understanding is, the only difference between the comfort seats and the regular seats (excluding the perforated option for ventilation and the electric lumbar) is,
The comfort seats are the exact same except there is one more adjustment that is added for the upper portion of your back.
- It kind of splits the seat back into two sections, lower and upper back.

But since I've never once used the upper back setting on my 7 series, I didn't think I needed it.

Drool, dribble and more drool. Love your lifts and the garages, and the cars too!

Cheers,
