Towing and ASS

Ckochese · 09-07-2023, 09:25 AM

Hello all,
First post. I have a 2024 X5 40i that I purchased a few months ago. After driving a few thousand miles I’ve found the ASS to be pretty rough at times. Actually jerks forward at a stop if I’m not planted hard on the brakes. Not seemless by any stretch and obnoxious it can’t be turned off. Anyways, when towing does the system operate like in comfort mode or does it switch off similar to sport mode? I couldn’t find a tow setting in the menus. Just looking for a workaround to drive normally with no ASS. Thanks

My 2020 has a button to turn it off—the 24 doesn’t have this?

Unfortunately not - my thread on this is here: https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2044863

TL;DR the only options we've apparently got are to drive with the transmission in S (Sport), the Drive Mode in Sport or Sport Individual (the Drivetrain has to be set to Sport) or to disable Traction Control.
