I believe vehicles built after 09/09 (2010 Model Year) have the new CIC and updated iDrive. But that also coincided with the time BMW decided to use the base audio system as standard equipment for...

I just use the Chevron once............in a long time. I can't even remember the last time I put it in any of the cars, at least 9 or more months. I don't see the need for any additives.

I know the earlier X3s had some issues with the rear springs where the pigtail end might break off, so checking the suspension might be a good idea. Also check that the moonroof works well with no...

My hunch is that carve out on the left side with the netting went away with the LCI. Indications suggest that the Storage packet only includes the interior rails and tie-down eyelets.

Here's a 40d...

I don't think there is a carve-out compartment on the left side, at least its not listed in the Storage Package. The lashing-eyes may be under the cargo floor (guessing based on my X3), and the...

The beach should be great right about this time, especially on the Cape side waters. Chapman's Peak is worth the drive (toll of R45 I think it was). The Waterfront has some nice shopping and...

It depends on where you live, honestly. Driving habits also matter.

The irritating thing is that for North America, the 35d is old technology and the M57 engine is roughly 10 years old (although...

I would just order one as you see fit, with the colour and configuration you want. Honestly, BMW's been working hard to promote that; should take no more than 4-6 weeks depending on dealer allocation.

Haven't watched them on BBC America for years. I stick to the unedited UK versions that are full-length hour without adverts.

Put it this way, it airs on BBC Two @ 21:00 every Sunday, which gives...

I cook myself most of the time; saves me time so I don't have to drive to the restaurant plus I save money.

When I do eat fast food, I stick with Hardee's to clog my arteries.

Unless it's different on the E53, the connectors are different for the electrochromic and non-electrochromic ones. So if you have auto-dimming mirrors and put on a regular heated one, you'll lose...

Generally it's easy: Do you have auto-dimming (electrochromic) exterior mirrors? If so, it's going to be more expensive. If not, it'll be pretty cheap, since they're just heated. Just make sure you...

Isn't all-season performance (summer) tire sort of impossible? I'd rather it have summer tires from the factory like in most other countries. Size doesn't matter, I just don't like "no-seasons"...

The aluminium in BMWs is real aluminium. The silver trim (Matte Silver) is generally hard to find on US-models. For the E83 X3, it was the standard trim only in the 2,5i model.
