Placing an order for X5 50e - Is it possible to get black grill?

Hi all,

I'm custom ordering X5 50e in Tanzanite blue. Would like to know if it is possible to get the black grill?

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. It is part of the MSport package.

Thank you TurtleBoy! I ordered x40i with MSport package last week because I was concerned about the issues in 50e. 50e would have been perfect for my commute that's 20 miles one way with charging at work.

Congrats on the order and hopefully your wait will not be too bad.

Specifically, it's part of the M Sport Professional package which is a separate package after selecting the M Sport design.


* Oops, saw you asked a month ago and just ordered. Congrats on the 40i! I am in the same camp of 50e vs 40i.

Production starts this week. Should I be concerned the car image displayed is not the exact one I ordered? It’s carbon black but does not show the m sport pro package I ordered. It looks like the basic carbon black x5

No, you shouldn't be concerned with the image. As long as it show the package under the options list you will be fine.

Hi TurtleBoy

I used the F12 method and found my production date is Feb 15. I have sent an email to SA and waiting for response, meanwhile want to ask you if I can make some changes since production has not started. Is there specific I cannot change at this point in production.

Thanks you!

No, nothing can be changed since you are in, I'm assuming given the timing, the Production Begins status. Once a VIN has been assigned then everything is locked.

Picked my X5 2 weeks ago. Driven about 200 miles so far and suddenly got low pressure in one of the rear tires. I'm new to BMW ownership. Can anyone share what I should do next to fix it? Do I take it to the dealer /schedule service? Can it be scheduled in any BMW service center?

Check what pressure they should be at (look at the door jamb for filling when tires are cold) and fill them to that pressure. If you don't want to do it yourself most tire places will do it for you for free. If it keep dropping then you may have a leak but I'm assuming since you didn't say the tire was flat that it is a slow one if you do have it.

Thanks TurtleBoy, it is 13 psi (should be 40) on that tire so I'm guessing its flat and hence asked if I should take it to BMW service center.

Yes, if it is 13psi it likely is flat. I would give them a call and see if they can help you out. They may not have the tire is stock. Even though they are run flats it probably would be best to put air in them prior to driving it.

It was a nail. Tire needs to be replaced. Not part of warranty since it’s Bridgestone. About 550 + tax.
