2019 BMW X5 review: O.G. dog, new tricks

I want to call the 2019 X5's styling derivative, but the only design it's 'borrowing' is its

own.

The front end may have slightly thinner lights and a more hunkered-down look than before,

but it looks largely the same as the X5 it replaces -- save for the grille, which has

continued to swell like a dying star.

Things are a bit different at the rear, where BMW's new corporate taillights give the X5

a bit more dimension.

I mean that literally -- the taillights have some very nice 3D characteristics that help

to break up what would otherwise be monotony 'round back.

My tester's 20-inch wheels add to the SUV's looks, but not without tacking an extra $600

onto the price tag.

The interior is laid out in a straightforward manner.

Don't get me wrong, there are loads of buttons in here, but they're grouped together sensibly

-- all the climate controls are next to each other, while everything related to driving

is down by the shifter.

It doesn't take me long to commit most of these positions to memory, making it easy

to change settings on the fly.

My major gripe here is storage -- aside from the center armrest cubby, which isn't very

large, there aren't many places to cram things, which could be an issue if this is a family-first

vehicle.

The first tech-related bits you'll probably notice in the X5 are its screens.

The standard 12.3-inch gauge display and 12.3-inch infotainment screen are both large and in

charge.

I am not the biggest fan of the gauge cluster's "map," which really only works when navigation

directions are turned on, since the roads aren't labeled.

Otherwise, I do appreciate that all the relevant information is displayed prominently on either

side, and the colors and layout change depending on the mode, which is a nice touch.

Sport and Comfort modes get red motifs, while Eco Pro turns the whole thing blue.

The latest iteration of BMW's iDrive works well, with a home screen that displays most

of the relevant information by default.

Being able to jump between touching the screen and using the physical dial below is appreciated.

That said, there are loads of menus and options on there, which can be daunting at first.

Changing certain things, like the optional head-up display's brightness, requires diving

through several menus, which can be awfully distracting.

Apple CarPlay is included, but BMW charges a subscription for it, which is stupid.

You get the first year free, at least.

My tester also packs BMW's optional gesture control, a feature I think is frivolous and

actually detrimental from a distraction standpoint.

Yet, it's part of a $2,050 Premium Package that includes things like wireless device

charging, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a surround-view camera system, so I think the package is worth

it, even if you never once attempt to change the volume by swirling your finger around

like Harry Potter's wand.

Fans of cable-based charging will be excited to see USB-C

Is BMW Better Than Audi? - Duration: 14:45.

so you're shopping for a BMW or an Audi you want a premium German sedan or a

coupe I'm gonna share with you why you probably want to buy a BMW before you

buy the out welcome back to the channel everybody mark with exotic cars lately

the pros and cons of both brands and what would make you decide to pick one

or the other we're gonna compare all the major facets of each car brand and then

you can make a decision at the end and I'm gonna explain to you what I believe

I would purchase and for what reason so first of all let's start with the

exterior styling of both cars of course when we talk about BMW if you look at a

lot of particularly the M cars the BMWs are a lot edgy ER there's a lot more

aggression going on there yeah sure Audi's a lot of times have the big open

spoilers and whatnot but BMW is a lot more prominent more big aggressive

spoilers more vents and generally speaking more creases and other accents

all over the car where the Audi generally is a little bit understated

great styling very attractive cars of course very beautiful in the Audi world

just slightly understated slightly more conservative unless you get into the

really aggressive models you know say for example an r8 or an RS 7 you're fine

gonna find yourself with a car that is a little bit more conservative than the

BMW now on styling I mean they both have benefits and we can talk about the fact

that they both have great unique body styles in in different versions I mean

they each bring something sort of unique and I'll give you some examples

howdy for example has the wonderful r8 the a7 RS 7 of course with that unique

unique back-end that style that chopped-off backend which kind of gives

a really unique style you know coupled that with the aggressive front spoiler

and of course one of my favorites in the Audi world is the TT RS which is an

extremely quick little car that I got a chance to review a couple of years back

I really loved it it's a sweetheart of an engine with that 2.5 liter

turbocharged five cylinder engine makes great sounds

and goes like there's no tomorrow so there's great cars where IOT in terms of

the styling the stout look and the aggression their BMW on the other hand

has some unique styling cars too such as the i8 e i3 and the m4 GTS which is a

hardcore diehard track wrecking machine the BMW first of all it has a very

high-quality interior fit and finish there's a lot of great materials

particularly in the upper scale versions like the M cars you get a lot of great

nice soft touch materials the switchgear is very nice high quality and overall it

gives a very very very sturdy feel to it that being said BMWs have a little bit

of an outdated look to them and honestly up until about 2018 here and now of

course the new restyle it's finally changed but a lot of the BMW still only

had analog gauges the old-school gauges and I know a lot of people a lot of you

guys you know don't hate me for it they're great I mean an analog gauge is

classic and of course it works better in bright sunlight however it's still the

old tech and Audi has moved massively ahead leaps and bounds several years

ahead at BMW you know the downside with the BMW interiors though unfortunately

now are you know the interiors you've get the linear dashboard which a lot of

people like it but in a lot of cases is slightly bland in my opinion as well as

also in my opinion the iDrive display the way that they stuck it right in the

middle of the dashboard tells me like it's more of an after effect an

afterthought they didn't really plan that one out very well you can't make it

go away it's fixed there it's situated and this is where it sort of puts you

behind puts BMW behind outtie in terms of you know outies technology

advancements and that moves us to Audi when we talk about Audie Brad versus the

BMW there's no question in my mind the Audi has the premium interior the

Tirion there's just something about it it's just a little bit

upscale from the BMWs the interior materials are a little bit nicer there's

even less use of cheaper plastics in certain spot they have a much better

interface system where you can either toggle between the dashboard right in

the gauge cluster or you can pop up the display in the middle of the dash but

the beauty is the middle of the dash you can make that thing disappear in a lot

of these Audi's nowadays so it doesn't become the eyesore that the BMW sort of

displays in the middle of the dash and that really moves us into the whole

discussion about the user interface the Audi one is definitely leagues ahead of

the iDrive system even though BMW sort of led the charge in terms of interfaces

you know way back when they first came out with their eye drive system they

were one of the first to come out with that type of concept and you know it was

just like Audi to basically take from that build on it and make it much better

it's a cleaner more easily operated system and of course it's just in

generally more advanced more refined than the BMWs and then we talk about

another one of the key ingredients and its performance where the BMW comes in

is the fact that BMW creates engines sort of unique for that car they they

design the engine based on what they want for that cars dynamics it's unique

its original and they really focus on that drivetrain they're more precise and

a lot of the engines and power trains coming into the BMW cars particularly

the M cars are in my mind a little bit more worked out in the sense of the

design the the delicacy and the performance the sound tends to come a

little bit more you know it tends to be a little sharper in the BMWs and you

want some examples how about the wonderful McLaren f1 with that glorious

v12 motor that they lent to McLaren that you know design in-house by BMW that was

still one of the best engines of all time as well as the e60 m5 now there's

arguments to be talked about reliability but in the sense of an engineering

masterpiece and this sounds and the 8,300 rpm redline that's

Formula One derived there's nothing like it

and so BMW there's no question in my mind creates drive trains that are the

primary focus of their car not the other way around now ollie on the other hand

you know because they steal a lot of the parts from the Volkswagen bin a lot of

the drive trains are a little bit more generic now that doesn't always mean

it's bad what that does mean is often the drive trains can be quite robust

well sorted and you'll have less issues generally speaking as well a lot of the

audi drive trains sounds spectacularly good how about the v8 r8 engine that is

an awesome drivetrain with that 4.2 liter v8 that they shoehorn in a lot of

their cars they've used them in the r8 and some of the you know the RS fours

you know are s5s things like that they've used that wonderful glorious 4.2

liter v8 which is not only reliable not only powerful but extremely great

sounding and a lot of fun to operate but it's not just about the 4.2 in OD

they also use some great engines like that two and a half litre five-cylinder

turbocharged engine that they shoehorn into some of their cars like the rs3 s

the TT RS as I mentioned before with that TT RS it is magnificently quick and

with a power-to-weight ratio that that car produces it is exceptionally fun to

drive and it's an awesome drivetrain that 2.5 litre as well engines that

you'll find in even some of the S models the turbocharged four-cylinder engine

that they share with the Volkswagen for example the 2-liter four-cylinder that

produces 300 horsepower that is a lot of power out of that displacement so great

technology there for sure shared between Volkswagen and Audi Oh both they have

wonderful rs7 that thing is phenomenally fast and up until the most recent m5

that thing would dominate over just about any luxury sedan on the market

with its performance and all-wheel drive sure handling capabilities it was just a

ruthless machine do everything for you the rs7 sure it

wasn't cheap but it did a lot of great things awesome machines and then we

talked about the last major topic street credibility you know Audi we talked

about some of the Audi's I think back to the you know the five thousands and the

five thousand turbos and all I can think it was honestly that's what comes to

mind so out up until they got into rallying really had nothing to talk

about in terms of their older cars they were

hideous they were disgusting they were unreliable and quite frankly

there was nothing about them made me want to buy an Audi back in the day

things have changed dramatically out he got their shit together and they finally

produced started producing some cars in the last decade or so that become

vehicles that you want to own performance machines they're more

attractive and of course they've got the Audi Quattro business so the all-wheel

drive has always been appealing where the BMW sort of lacks that that up until

a few years ago BMW couldn't match they didn't have all-wheel drive systems now

of course X drives and BMWs also are coming out with you know all-wheel drive

cars but still really other than the m5 you can't get all-wheel drive systems in

any of the em cars whereas the Audi's be a lot of the RS models they're all

all-wheel drive and you can enjoy that spectacular performance and you can

enjoy it all year round if you live in snowy conditions that being said when

you talk about street credibility BMW owns that they have a racing history

they were racing heritage and they also have they've been around a long time in

the 60s and the 70s and they've been producing performance cars since almost

the beginning of time hence their name ultimate driving machine that name sure

is a bit of a marketing ploy but there is definitely a lot of truth to it

so up until a few years ago honestly you sort of had to choose one or the other

you have to choose a BMW because you wanted the credibility you want the

bragging rights and you wanted that performance em engine or something along

those lines you would choose of Audi because you wanted all-wheel drive

systems that wonderful glorious Quattro system and a little bit of a performance

tuna to it as well well now in the recent years Howdy's up their game they

produced more and more performance based cars that are countering everything if

every other brand meantime BMWs been working on all-wheel drive systems to

bring that to the table to sort of meet already in the middle somewhere so now

the choice is more and more difficult between an Audi and a BMW you could sort

of have you know all-wheel drive at performance in either Brad for the most

part and so the choice really becomes yours which one do you like the bavarian

beast or do you like the Audi which honestly shares a lot of parts from the

Volkswagen parts bin and a lot of the parts are shared between many models

versus BMWs the engine is designed first and really the car is designed around

the engine whereas the Audi it's sort of the other way around they create the car

they market it and then they find a power plant that's consistent with

Volkswagen or Audi brand and shoehorn it in that car so the BMW like I said is a

little bit more of a focus on the performance whereas out it was a little

bit more focused on on luxury technology as well as of course a wonderful

all-wheel drive system so they both bring something to the table they are

both spectacularly great brands you have to make a choice for yourself now coming

to my selection what would I choose if I were to pick up

one of these brand new cars I'm out shopping for a new Audi or a new BMW or

new Benz of course as well well to be quite honest at this point in time I

think I'm going to be going for the BMWs and then

only because I love the engines and the drive trains in the current model

lineups in the EM cars in the BMWs I mean I've driven a lot of these cars now

I've driven some of the Audi's I've driven a lot of the Beemers and some of

the bends and honestly I can tell you the BMW still create a well sorted

high-performance drivetrain the M drives are exceptionally fun to drive the m5 is

just monstrously powerful and now with its all-wheel drive it matches the rs7

the m4 and the m3 are both great hot rods both driven both of them and the

fact that you can get them in a manual stick shift or the dual clutch

transmission is very appealing to me but that engine is just really really sharp

really Torquay really crisp and I have to say I love the M cars so either way

you can't go wrong but that's my selection so I really hope you enjoyed

the video everybody hope that shed some light for you at the end of the day many

choices many strokes for different folks of course everything brings something to

the table and of course we're all big boys here time to make its choice for

yourself and if you liked the video you make sure you give it a thumbs up of

BMW F11 520D with defective EGR | Schmiedmann Nordborg - Duration: 5:07.

One of today's projects in the workshop is a

BMW F11 520D - 2011 model.

The car had particulate filter faults - it said there was an issue with the particulate filter,

and the Check Engine light was on in the instrument cluster.

Our technician Henrik tested the car to diagnose the issue.

It turned out that the particulate filter was not faulty - a test is run on the particulate filter to controll the counterpressure

and how much counterpressure there is in front of the particulate filter.

The issue turned out to be a defective EGR valve, which we have dismounted - it is normally placed here at the front of the engine

- furthermore, there was a clogged intake manifold which is normally placed at the left side of the engine.

Here are the parts ready to be replaced.

The EGR valve we dismounted had a couple of different defects.

The vacuum damper that opens and closes was in bad condition

And this is the defective EGR valve.

In this project we mount a complete and used EGR valve with EGR cooler.

One of the issues linked to the EGR system

is a clogged intake system - here is the pipe that runs from EGR valve to the intake manifold.

You can see here how the intake manifold is clogged with soot.

The pipe is narrowed in and almost closed.

This gives the car decreased performance and bad fuel-economy.

And this is the pipe that runs to the intercooler, and it too is clogged with EGR soot.

The parts will be cleaned with a special machine that can clean the manifold and this pipe, so that it will be as new.

After the cleaning we will assemble everything back together and do a testdrive - then the customer will feel getting a completely new car back.

In the process of diagnosing and testing a car like this 520D

that has reported particulate filter error in the instrument cluster, and with a computer readout have airflow error, EGR error,

and the other errors, our tester is a crucial tool

to make a diagnosis and get the car running perfectly once more.

At all steps of the process we are looking at how high the counter pressure is in front of the particulate filter (even while we drive in the car).

It is very important that the particle pressure never is above 300 millibar at full acceleration,

which I am keeping an eye on now that the car gets full acceleration.

And it is keeping at great level - far beneath 150 millibar.

Another important factor is the engine temperature.

In order for the particulate filter to last a long time and the distance it is meant to,

the engine temperature must always be at the right levels.

This car has the right engine temperature as it rises rapidly

- after you have started the test drive - up to somewhere between 85 and 90 degrees celsius.

As we have explained earlier in the video, the EGR valve and the EGR cooler was replaced and the intake manifold cleaned.

All errors are now fixed, as no errors appears on the computer readout - the car is fixed and to be handed back to its owner.

Schmiedmann BMW M3 E30 Cabriolet interview - Duration: 8:30.

My name is Lars, and at summer I drive the BMW M3 E30

convertible that is behind us - otherwise I drive a BMW 520D

touring - of course with full M-package -

as the daily driver. I also have a BMW 130I, also with M-package.

Do you have more BMWs than this one?

Yes - at the moment I have three. I have had many BMWs

and always looking for new ones

How did you become a BMW enthusiast?

That goes back to my early years when I sat on the backseat of a BMW

E21 - one of the first 6 cylinder. The feeling of the car

the sound, the driving experience - I was sold already back then.

Which was your first BMW model?

My first BMW was an E30,

a nice 2-door 320I - I had it for

a year an a half before I switched to an E36.

Why did you choose a BMW M3 E30 convertible?

I was not going for a convertible, as I did not know they existed

When I as a teenager and looked at cars,

cool cars at that time, the Crown Prince of Denmark had just gotten an M3 and it was simply perfect.

I have had several E30's beyond my daily drivers,

some of them convertibles - at a point I thought that now it was time to get an M3.

I have always dreamed of one, and when I was looking for one I found that some convertible models existed.

I continued my search and in 2014 I found this one in England.

where it had been for 3 years. Before that it had been in Netherlands from it was brand new.

In the 3 years it was in England, the owner had basically not driven it due to the steering wheel being in the wrong side for him,

which suited me perfectly for driving in Denmark - it was only made as LHD and he did not drive it.

Was it difficult to find the right car?

It was difficult to find one, as only few were ever built and we do not know how many are left. But when I first found out that they existed,

I had to have a convertible. I looked at a few, but they where not as I preferred. It was important they were free of rust

and that it was below 200.000 km. Beyond that how it was, was of less importance except that

I wanted it to be as original as possible, with only a minimum of modifications so that I knew what I would get.

I found this and knew it was the right one. I entered negotiations with the owner and after 14 days we had come to an agreement.

The car came with the last ferry from England to Esbjerg in 2014

Have you done any modifications to it?

No I have not - for me it is important to keep it as original as possible. The first thing I did as I arrived at home was to send an email

to Søren, who was here at Schmiedmann before Andrew became a part of the team. He called me immediately

and asked: "Have you bought an M3?" - "Yes I have". I ordered all the clips there was , because I like to have them ready on the shelf

so that if we disassemble anything we can put it back together correctly. And it speaks volumes of the car

that I have found the parts - the brakes have been replaced completely

as well as the mountings for the undercarriage has been replaced, all to original parts. Everytime I have sent Schmiedmann an email

either Søren or Andrew got me the parts. I collected the parts and enjoyed spending my

winter evenings on this project, and to keep it as original as possible

as this car deserves - modifications should be for other cars.

Is the BMW M3 E30 the ultimate BMW?

When I was looking for one it was, and now I have it. Without taking anything from the M3 E30,

today I would go for a BMW 507, but the price is totally out of proportions,

as I would never be able to afford one with my economy. The M1 is also an amazing car.

I have also looked for what they in the US calls an M6 or a 635I with full M-pakcage.

An E34 M5 is another dream car of mine that I am looking for.

But this one here is definitely also a dream car that I have.

Do you have any plans to replace your BMW M3 E30 with another model?

There have been some who have

been interested in my M3 E30, but I have no plans to replace it or get rid of it.

I would rather find another one, and have an additional BMW to drive.

I have it now, and I am happy with it and have done almost all I wanted to do to it.

There are only a few things I need to do before it is just as I want it to be, and we have already started with it.

I do not want to sell it, but I will need a new project to spend my evenings on.

How is the experience to drive in your BMW M3 E30?

Lots of people start up conversations with me about the car, and I have even experienced that some people passes me on the road and stops me to see the car.

It is definitely an experience and there are people who come to me

and says that it is not original. I tell them that it is indeed original, and it is far from all who knows that the M3 E30 was also made as convertible and were produced in small numbers.

Only about 786 were ever made

so there are only few left and you don't see them often. The car is original and I enjoy it very much, especially taking the kids out for ice cream in the summer

which it is perfect for, and when it gets some rpm,

the sound is amazing - however, I drive on Danish roads so there is a limit to how much I can push it.

How did you first hear about Schmiedmann?

That goes many years back. Must have been in 2000-ish.

Schmiedmann was a young company. I was there almost from the beginning, I can barely remember it.

I might have seen it in a BMW magazine? Was it in the newspaper? Or the phone book? I can actually not remember.

It is many years back, and I have come here through all the years to buy parts for my BMWs, as I have had many BMWs.

How have your experience been here at Schmiedmann?

No relationship is all rosy, however I still come here to buy parts, so it has been good

I often use the webshop to find the parts I need for my cars,

and Schmiedmann keeps me updated when they arrive - I buy a lot of original spare parts too.

and they are very good at getting me those. I have a good experience with the service, I know the people

When you come here a couple of times a month to pick up a part or two, you get to know the people - so a good experience.

BMW: ZANARDI "Human Meets Machine" - Duration: 1:57.

I remember spinning around in the grass

when I woke up that's character I guess

It's something you either have or not

Every one of us is different I've seen a lot of people who surprise themselves

Instead of asking myself how am I going to live with no legs

I simply ask myself

How the hell am I going to do all the things that I have to do with no legs?

I was rather curious than depressed.

Of course I was not happy with what happened but

I was so joyful that happiness was right there available

as I was alive
