That pretty much what I have been finding since I posted that. Seems the air suspension is desired for towing on the x5's.

No experience towing with it, but I've read the same as above.
What I have liked is self leveling while carrying heavy loads. Comes in handy when carrying sand bags or roofing singles.

It struck me as funny to equate the troubleshooting efforts of a car and a dead module with something that we normally would say about a family member.
And then, as I type this in reply to your question, it occurs to me that you *were* talking ab the loss of his family member- his puppy- and not the car! So I was mixed up in what you were talking ab and it made me laugh for all the wrong reasons. But of course all of *that* is making me laugh even more. Sorry for my confusion. But damn, my confusion is even more funny now (to me). LOL

I'm really glad they did not blow out when I was towing that load I had a Chinese airbag blowout on me while not towing any load at about 80mph and it was quite the surprise I sprang for an Arnot bag to replace that one Mike

When I was in Colorado, I towed with the X5 every week. Anything from, mini cooper all the way to other X5, the height control is a plus for sure, as it keeps it level through the entire trip. I towed my 97 M3 from Colorado to Idaho, combine GWR was 11-12K total, and it did just fine.
Now I am prepping the X5 to travel back to Colorado Or Texas it all depends... with a Travel Trailer max weight is 4,500lbs so it should be just fine. As for my airbags, they are OE, and I am planning to replace them with ARNOTT brand from Rockauto. They are $97.79 with the same warranty from manufacture, and cheaper somehow. I did do a complete suspension refresh. I just need to do that refresher kit on my wife's X3, and we will be all prepped and ready to go on this road trip of 844-1201 miles depends on the location.

Both my X5's have been springers. Here's what my first X5 looked like pulling my Ferrari across the country when we moved to Charlotte. I wish I had the bags...
