There are old threads regarding the vibration dampener that seems to be almost randomly installed on our X5s. Seems they get installed most often on the 22" variants but seems to be happening less even for those in MY22.

If you've taken delivery of a MY22 or even MY21, appreciate your input as to whether you had the dampeners installed at the factory or not. Mine did not come with them but I ordered with the 20" wheels and since I'm putting 22" wheels on soon, I'm trying to figure out if I should plan to install the dampeners too and ultimately I'm trying to figure out "what would BMW do".

For those hearing this for the first time, it's the black box bolted to the front wishbones in this photo.

X5M's don't have the dampeners. But then again, the suspension/chassis reinforcement is a whole lot different from the other versions.
