Some off road in an E53.
First video is the crawl down...takes about a minute...second video is the way back up...takes less than 10 seconds. Anyway, thought I'd share.

Did not think the X5 could do that!

We go "off roading" every time we take the X5 out. We live 1.5 miles up a dirt road surrounded by fields!

I've used in the in past for minor hills with much success. In fact, it's one of my favorite features.


However, the grade of this hill made me nervous so I used the brakes myself. The slowest the downhill assit will go is 5mph and I was already pushing the 50% tilt warning from the owner's manual.

I had to watch both videos. After the first I expected your X to become a historical landmark on that peninsula.
