Since owning my new 40i with M-Sport package, I have been in a constant gaga state of excitement over the features and beautiful looks of the SUV, but I can't really get over the lack luster or complete lack of exhaust note. Previously owning an E70 X6 M50i Dinan, I can tell you it truly is a lackluster experience when stepping on the gas and not being able to "hear" the car. purr or even make any noise what so ever.
From searching on this forum and seeing feedback from fellow members about a lackluster increase in the exhaust note even with the M exhaust installed, I did a web search and came across "Maxhaust" and reached out to them in Germany and it seems there is a unique solution from the reply I received from them bellow:

Since we personally did not have the BMW X5 2019 in our garage, this vehicle has to be programmed. You can order our “universal set” and after connecting the cables, please get in touch with us via phone. Our Managing Director, Mr. Patrick Schart, makes the programming with you.
For any further questions, don´t hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
