From what I am hearing, F15 X5 diesel will use the same engine as the 5-series diesel being introduced in Summer this year. |

BMW is coming with at least 2 different diesel engines this year; 28d and 35d.
28d for 3-series and 35d for 5-series, X5 and 7series. |

Any word on transmission on new X5d ? - 6 or 8 speed? Any details on gear ratio and final drive would be appreciated. Thx

word is that its a new turbo-six cyl.
8-speed...Acceleration is supposed to be better than current 35d. |

I can't complain about from-the-start acceleration on the current 6-speeder, but I think it could definitely benefit from an additional gear on high speeds to further improve highway MPG.

I wish I could agree with you, but I and many many others don't as our cars suffer from a serious lag at take off (turbo, tranny, software... who knows). I truly hope the new engine will not have this issue!

P.S. An additional gear would help for highway. RPMs too high for a diesel at highway speeds (although it helps passing). |

BTW, lag will be there on just about any turbo engine, due to having to create return loop with exhaust gases. So if new 35d is also ....-turbo, it will likely to have lag as well. The engine on my wife's F30 335 also has lag - shorter, but it is there nevertheless. And with 8-speed transmission, the perception that acceleration is much worse than it used to be on E90.
