Watch This Before Buying a BMW X5M or X6M F85/F86

Here is the buyer's guide I put together for the BMW X5M. This also applies to the BMW X6M. F85/F86
I talk about the different options and colors.
2015- early 2016- NBT or version 4?
Late 2016- late 2017- iDrive5 Still runs on BMW Connected services and has Apple CarPlay
Late 2017-2017-iDrive6 4G Currently on BMW Connected Services and Apple CarPlay
Some of the colors are individual options, which means it was a special order.

Wireless charger is in the armrest. Phone stands up vertical in a slot.

[@eddiemcars]

Thank you for that!

[@Mr455cut]

Thank you for your insight on the BMW X5M very informative video. 💯

[@arebalobv07]

Great video brother, very informative.

[@thabokabai4188]

This was helpful. Trying to decide between this and the 2016 Range Rover SVR.

[@yerocjr]

Just purchased my first M. I've had all generations. Sold my 21 because it was a great opportunity to make a few dollars but came back to a 15 with 55k miles just nervous no one wants to warranty the engine.. But I'm back in love with my car....

[@alexk5390]

You have a chance to learn how to repair the one then - it is not so hard, over time you will get used to it ;) just like me

[@_Fnnx_]

We have bought a x5m 1 month ago and the riding comfort is the same than our last car (E70 40d) maybe even better!

[@corpnupe85]

Great Review!

[@nuellynuelly]

Man i wish they kept this look bro! The best looking x5m for sure

[@homesaroundeu]

Unfortunately they did not. I agree, this is the best X5 M design by far!

[@jackd8336]

Great in depth video.. actually about to buy one that’s a replica of yours except for the B&O… excited!

[@B58_Nick]

I have multiple videos of my buddy’s X5M on my channel, his is leaking oil now from the valve stems 😅I don’t know how he’s going to fix it but it’s awful the amount of smoke that comes out from the oil being burnt, besides that , it is the most comfortable and amazing SUV I’ve ever driven, his has 800HP fully tuned FBO, I really hope he gets the engine fixed it’s too nice of a vehicle to have that happening, he did that by the POP Tune

[@clydestrong2913]

AWESOME RIDE!!!

[@eddiemcars]

I sold it after the video, but an awesome ride indeed!

[@iranansari]

Hi Eddie, love the vids. I think you are a physician in California. Would love some of your help with my F15 x5. Especially if you local!

[@Jokeman718]

I definitely bought mine 2 days ago, best decision ever.

[@user-jx3bc8hg2l]

Is it reliable

[@xvolkodavx446]

Nice video as always, sucks that’s the last one on f85 As far as I know true Black Sapphire ( Black Fire in Europe) edition has carbon fiber mirrors, always shadow line and always black grill, so the car Gus looked at just had black and red seats but not the entire packaged car Azurite Black is another individual color and in my opinion probably the best color they have, especially paired with Amaro or Creole Brown individual interior Don’t remember if you mentioned that, but if you get bmw individual interior, entire door will be that color, not just top portion, as well as dashboard, so Individual leather goes beyond Full

[@elsbells8545]

Great content….

[@eddiemcars]

Thanks!

[@yerocjr]

Any tips or tricks the car has that I may be missing? Great video..

[@eddiemcars]

Sure! If you haven’t already, check these videos out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZPKd6hrfb6BqtE kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYashYGrjrWhbck

[@Edzie4849]

Hey Eddie, im from canada, im going to buy 2017 X5M which has 120000km on it well maintained , but it has dinan exhaust and when i went for a test drive its smelss like burning oil and black dust on the exhaust? Is it like an issue in the future or right now? Should i buy it? Or is it like normal for exhausts equipped m engines that burns oil? Seekin your suggestions and also advice from everyone , please let me know guys , i dont want to end up in serious trouble later… please please , helps are appreciated

[@asaventure3893]

Was the tune worth doing? I watched your videos and. I got myself 2018 bmw x5m with all the bell and whistles lol 28k miles great car

[@eddiemcars]

The tune is fun if you want more power and I drive it like that for a year. However before I sold it, I drove it stock for about a month or two and for some reason it felt more playful and enjoyable. Hard to explain but with the tube there are a lot of things that have to work together to make it feel like stock power but nothing feels as perfect as the stock map, the way the engineers designed it.

[@makhasiri1304]

How to get hold of Tony to upgrade the rear clipper? Thank you

[@eddiemcars]

I think his email was listed in the description on the brake caliper video.

[@mboss_f8618]

Wait, i thought you sold your F85? Great video anyways 😊

[@eddiemcars]

Yeah, I did. This was one of the last videos I filmed with it.

[@lgordin587]

Why’d you sell?

[@Tommyjonesblack]

Don’t know if you mentioned , what tune did you have on the x5 ?

[@eddiemcars]

I ran BootMod3 stage 1 OTS tune

[@Tommyjonesblack]

[@jaimearmstrong5275]
