New Member & owner of 05 4.8is
05 4.8is -Lemans blue -black interior with some type of cloth insert (not alcantara). Did all 4.8is come with this two tone interior? Actually looks pretty cool. -17k miles on the odo -titanium trim (I think. if not it looks like grey) -fully loaded (NAV, load floor) -previously owned by some bmw exec so I guess this means that the car was never sold to the public?? I have some gripes about it though. Hopefully you guys can give me some suggestions: -The idiots at the dealership installed the front license plate bracket. Now there's holes in the front black part of the bumper. Any way of getting these holes filled? -The NAV screen is pretty dull looking. Especially in the daylight....almost unreadable. I've played around with the brightness but it seems to not do much for the screen. Is it common for the NAV screen to look washed out in the daylight? Is there any way to angle the screen more vertically? -I got bluetooth to work (thanks to all of you and countless hours of reading up on this forum). BUT, the voice prompt says that the directory is empty although all my contacts are listed in the NAV screen. Pics suck since they're from the dealer but I'll be updating this thread soon with my very own. Hope to be here for a long time. Love the forum. Carlos 05 4.8is

Carlos, Congrats! and :xoutpost:
Your new ride is same as mine. Your trim should be graphite. Titanium was not offered in 4.8is unless its swap by previous owner. -You can try filling the license plate holes with putty/glue mix. Never done it so don't really know. -That's one of the bad designs in first-gen X5. You can try to update the Nav OS to latest version. Check the Navigation forum here. That may help little by changing to perspective mode, but not a big difference. -I don't use voice commands, just use the R/T button on steering and scroll through. Others can chime on this.

for the '06 models the two tone interior was lost, so in the pre-'06s it was possible to get the two different tones but not mandatory

I use the voice commands alot with my phone (a 8700 BB), but even though the system can read the directory on the BB, you still have to load the voice names (out loud).
John
