New To X5 Forum

Hi folks,

I have been on the F25 forums for a few years now, but I have now just bought a year old low mileage X5 3.0D M Sport.

Iphone snap attached, but I will post more when I get it. I am due to pick it up next Thursday!

Hi dves, I think the exhaust is standard. It sounds quite muted until you give the V6 some throttle and then sounds nice, but not overly sporty.

In Canada,it is optional on 35i ,only 50i is standard. But might different in UK. Anyway welcome.

dves · 05-14-2017, 02:19 PM

Oh I see , you got 30D not 35i.

Welcome Ianfp.
Yes, your posts on the F25 board were always informative . I have/had F25/F15/F16, you are in for a treat. I think you made the proper decision, as per your question as to what's next. Almost sounds like Who's Next.

You'll find the sound of the exhaust is enhanced through the speakers so will sound better especially in sport+ mode when the gear shifts are quicker.
ENJOY!

No LED headlights? That's it, take it back...

Just joking, congrats on the new car.

Thank you barcelona, I hope you are right - I only drove it for a few miles, but it did feel nice! Well, who is next?

Is that right that the sound is enhanced through the speakers is this an X5 forum initiation joke for a newbie?

Thanks X5M50D (that's a beast of a car)

Thanks P1et, they aren't even adaptive, which is what I have on my X3. At least it has LED fogs!
