Top 10 Useful BMW X5 Hidden Features - BMW F15

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Thanks for watching! Check out another video about this BMW X5 where I talk about *Problems to Expect:* kzbin.info/www/bejne/opq5cmChoJ1md9E

[@EndTheFed1933]

I've had my x5 for 5 years and you taught me a couple things! Thank you!

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Great to hear!

[@shafiqurk]

Great Video. Another thing to add to turn signals(indicators) that a lot of people don’t know is, that you can lightly tap it in either direction and it will only blink 3 times and will automatically cancel itself. It helps when you changing lanes

[@sd-cz4wc]

You can also change it from blinking 3 times to only 1 time. Very cool feature.

[@Rykeron]

THANK YOU. I just got this car and it’s like everything in this video was a bonus feature

[@kenmcdonaldii3887]

I have a 2018 x5 50i - I didn’t know half of these! Thanks!!

[@Cacti98]

The indicator cancel got me laughing. I was that idiot when I test drove the car 😂 Thanks for showing how it works!

[@SimpleCarGuy]

A LOT of people hate it because they don’t know how it works or look silly on the road. It’s actually very useful if used rights. Thanks for watching!

[@kdsowle]

The double tap alarm with my dog in the car got me. Nice

[@authenthuse5165]

This is great! I started watching thinking as a long term owner of F15, I won't find anything new. Happy to admit I was wrong, the key hole on driver's door and the downshift were completely new for me!!

[@stevelc777]

Nice video. I was wanting to see how to reset the oil maintenance indicator. I think I know now. So I will go and test it.

[@shafiqurk]

Also, get yourself Carly adapter and its app guys, it will unlock so many features e.g closing trunk with a remote, Fold and unfold mirrors with remote, The door handle lights on reverse gear, enable video while driving, remove that camera and navigation disclaimer, change BMW startup logos and much more. Remember, it can void your warranty on a new car. I wish I knew about Carly when I first got my F15.

[@SergeyAnishenko]

Very good video! Thank you! What is "unlock code"? What it will unlock and what the other functions in this menu? :)

[@halahaski7367]

Thank u very much for this helpful video, I have a problem that I can't find a solution for,The speedometer, radio light, and air conditioner buttons are white when there is good lighting, but when the lighting becomes low or when night falls, their color turns orange. How can I keep them white?

[@孙浩林-y9y]

Great video, I actually learned something I don't know before! thanks.

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Thanks for watching!

[@tcruz86]

Great video on hidden tips.

[@M.ShahPeace]

I've had my x5 for 3 years and didn't know about the writing pad or the sunroof😂😂. I immediately went out to try these and all I can say is Thank you.

[@МамаРоссия]

I want this car so bad. ☺️

[@luciferztongue]

No you don't. I have the X6 f16, we lost internet capabilities. The extra functionality thru the app is now useless and no longer supported. There are class action suits against bmw over this. Plus...his isn't even an Msport or M.

[@jizhou749]

Very useful. Thank you.

[@Husky.Dude.]

What stuff do the unlock menu unlock? Can you send the link to your video please? Thanks!

[@MLeung-vl7we]

lol, had this car for 6yrs, and learned something new. thanks.

[@brandon_824rodriguez9]

How has the maintenance been for you?

[@MLeung-vl7we]

@@brandon_824rodriguez9 Do all common stuff myself. Its been solid. Air suspension leaked, but covered by CPO. The weak link is probably the suspension. Be prepared for some squeaking as it ages. If found, some oil with a syringe into the joint will take care of it.

[@paulwilliamson7757]

Great content especially the indicator cancel that’s been a real pain..thank you

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Glad it helped? Thanks for watching.

[@markhirst4029]

Great info. Thanks

[@bimmerfan6538]

woah, learned a couple new ones!

[@lilag3673]

Ha ! The key thing blew my mind 🤣🤣🤣!

[@nobidyknows]

Great! Keep it up!

[@DupekCSS]

I own F15 since 2014, and I didn't know about shortcut in menu :)

[@nikiboydj]

Thnx 4 trick i appriciate 👍🏼

[@MariusCicu]

Hi, you know how can I set to activate "auto Hold" permament (coz i hate to activate every time when I start the engine, hope is some options just to keep always activate. Is that possibile ? Thank you.

[@chenghuang888]

I have a question can you verify if the dot matrix on the f15 x5 windshield is it in between the glasses or is it on the glass thank you

[@Petroalba]

Great video

[@rpmbxdj]

Great video on the f15. My next car is gonna be a toss up between this and a 958 cayenne. I’m kind of liking the x5 a little more :)

[@asuremi1733]

I’m lowkey an X5 guy but it’s nice that your a bmw guy ima actually sub and watch this content

[@SimpleCarGuy]

[@yassinetouil3336]

Thankx

[@EdwardLui]

ok, gotta try the moonroof extension right now, be right back. lol

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I love learning these little things that you just wouldn't normally think of!

[@YourFavoriteHomeboy]

@@SimpleCarGuy Yeah, unfortunately in my 2021 model, the moonroof does not extend:(

[@NetRiverside]

How do you activate the feature that automatically keeps a set distance from the car in front of you while cruising is on?

[@denissuholitco5618]

Glazers out!!!!!!!!!

[@LeonardoCostaUSA]

Very cool!!

[@Aikynbreusov]

Love it

[@raniasamy6428]

How to launch it

[@jamesrobertlaffin8402]

Great content really useful 👌

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jamesrobertlaffin8402]

@@SimpleCarGuy I've have some electric side steps to put on my x5, there off the Internet. What do you think I've been told if there not original from bmw to steer clear, what do you think.

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I’ve never installed or used aftermarket ones, so I can’t tel you for sure, but I think as long as they are installed properly and are of good quality, there should be no issues. I would steer away from aftermarket sensors and most plastic parts.

[@braniac50]

Are these also on the 2022 x drive 40i???

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Might be some of them, but I haven’t had a chance to play with one of those.

[@braniac50]

@@SimpleCarGuy Thank you. We’ll have to try it out.

[@alfiedog2942]

Do you still own the Z4 ??

[@eddy5388]

if you press the sunroof button u can also open the back of it

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Very nice, thanks!

[@Ashley_van_Schooneveld]

I owned two different X5 and I know all those tricks

[@electricbreeze]

Congratulations...?

[@nickhollings2910]

Aren't you clever...

[@shunkar1787]

how much MPG do you guys get? why I get only19.5 on my 2014 BMW f15

[@SimpleCarGuy]

That sounds about right..

[@Ashley_van_Schooneveld]

Depends on many different things....

[@eLus1ve2991]

Shoulda got a diesel, 27/31mpg

[@tredbailey]

never seen anyone get the sunroof back that far

[@sekouchill]

Just got one today does the same thing

[@YonnyGogolak]

Dude can we lower this gen or no!??

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Sure, you can

[@davidking3918]

I had one of these pull out in front of me.guy was wearing a hoodie. .dude didn't even look to his right turning out not sure we're they get there licenses these days but the goof ball with hoodie mite not be so lucky next time think I'm going to get a train horn installed in my rav 4 .Humm not a bad idea.

[@sekouchill]

What lol nobody cares what does that have to do with this.. panties all tied up 😂😂

[@clxt6413]

yeah, me too!

[@Antonbmw1238]

Зачем писать название на русском если озвучка на английском

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Nothing is in Russian. I'm not sure where you see the title in Russian, but it's all in English.

[@nicolaskidd1507]

There is no way yall believe these are “hidden features”

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I guess these aren't strictly 'hidden features', but can be useful for those newer to BMWs or this X5. I guess I could rename the video to "I have read the manual for you and summarized it under 10 minute with some items you may or may not find interesting". Thanks for watching!

[@rugenurlaub1008]

Hidden Features? These are all normal functions and in no way 'hidden'. What shoud that?

[@MrRover30]

It’s 2021! Who gives a shit about these features!

[@electricbreeze]

People who own an F15? Just a guess. I might be wrong…

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Lol.. exactly! I love people that think not of people that get their cars from the dealer brand new and nothing else exists after their 3 year lease.

[@Rinanathar]

Weird comment
