BMW x5 e70 7 seats years of release. All owner reviews about BMW X5 E70 restyling. Fundamental innovations and driver assistance system

the main / Terms

The BMW X5 M has a special mission - to remain a practical vehicle and at the same time fully comply with a sports concept. The engineers tried their best to achieve the goal. The result is a model for those who prefer to actively live and relax.

It is worth noting that the exterior and interior of the BMW X5 M are strict in German, but it is impossible not to notice the elements that emphasize the dynamic character of the car. The harmony of sophistication and sportiness reigns here.

Let's step back from the usual and start reviewing the exterior not from the front, but from the back. After all, one of the most interesting details is a pair of twin tailpipes, they are an individual “signature” in BMW M-versions. Therefore, the gaze immediately falls here.

On the back of the BMW X5M are the familiar angular headlights and overall straight lines. Designers generally tried to highlight the body in a variety of ways. Therefore, when looking at the front of the BMW X5M, you notice how the streamlined bonnet flows into the bumper, which contains several aggressive features. The wheels are made of 20-inch light alloy wheels. 5 doors and a solid trunk (up to 1750 liters) fit well into the overall picture and do not reduce the energy emanating from the car. A nice bonus is the panoramic roof, because the BMW X5 M is also suitable for travel, which means that through it you will be able to see many colorful views.

In the interior of the BMW X5 M, everything has been done in line with the task at hand. It is filled with an atmosphere of courage, austerity, but at the same time elegance. There is a contrast between light and dark tones. This is a reflection of the essence of the model. The self-adjusting seats and the M-style multifunction steering wheel are covered in Merino leather and are the epitome of comfort and utility thanks to the utmost respect for ergonomics. The 6.5-inch display with white backlighting and the color-framed instrument panel help the driver stay in control of the road and stay on top of everything. Heated seats, climate control for two zones, cruise control with the ability to use brakes, a modern audio system (HiFi, 12 speakers, 230 W. amplifier) ​​and other options that this class of cars cannot do without, naturally are present here in excellent performance.

Specifications BMW X5 M.

If the design can only hint at the character of the car, then the engine is the most significant evidence. BMW X5 M is rightfully considered a sports crossover because it is equipped with a V8 with 555 hp. Other figures confirming the power are the ability to work at 6000 rpm. and 408 kW. Twin Scroll Twin Turbo engine, direct injection available. Technical indicators have a real embodiment: the maximum speed is 250 km / h, and the car will reach 100 km / h in just 4.7 seconds. Considering that the weight of the BMW X5M is 2380 kg, the figures are quite impressive.
The transmission is installed automatic. It contains 6 steps and, according to the nature of the settings, corresponds to the M sport configuration, that is, it instantly reacts to the need to change the speed and the situation on the road. In the BMW X5M, even tires (like Runflat) are ready for a challenge. If the pressure drops in them, the possibility of movement will still remain.

The car, of course, has four-wheel drive. It is specially designed to optimally distribute traction between the axles and wheels (BMW xDrive). Thus, the accuracy of cornering and stability is really increased. As a result, DSC intervention is rarely required. In addition to everything, the Servotroniс function is installed in the steering. With its help, the speed of movement is taken into account, and, depending on the data obtained, the steering sensitivity changes in relation to the driver's efforts. This ensures efficient control over a completely different speed range. Parking, reverse, driving on the highway - any conditions are taken into account by the computer. Among other things, this option is embodied in two versions: for normal driving and for sporty driving. In the second case, dynamism increases significantly, the forces of influence on the steering wheel will have to be applied more.

The BMW X5M version complies with environmental and safety standards. Advanced technologies (BMW EfficientDynamics) of the German company allow the car to meet the Euro-5 standard. The CO emission is 0.325 g / km. As for the protection of the driver and passengers in extreme cases, it is provided by amplifiers in the doors and a set of airbags. The car itself is equipped with a satellite system BMW Professional, which provides anti-theft functions. Another option that will help avoid unpleasant situations is the parking alarm, which is triggered if the distance to another object is very small. In addition, the cabin is additionally insulated for countries with a harsh climate. And the conditions in Russia can hardly be called soft.

The price of the BMW X5 M in 2012 is about 5 million 200 thousand rubles. This price includes all the listed features of the BMW X5 M and a number of others.

We can safely say that this modification further glorifies the BMW X5 model. In the M version, you can feel the racing character. Of course, for its manifestation, it is necessary that the road itself be ideal, otherwise the car will thoroughly “tell” the driver about all the shortcomings of the road.
If dynamism is not to your liking, then the mass of the latest intelligent systems will help maintain calm management. Plus, it's nice to have a big enough car, but not violate strict environmental regulations such as Euro 5.

The second generation of the BMW X5 crossover (E70 body) was on sale from 2006 to 2013. During this time, the model has gone through one update, which came in 2010. In Russia, the car in its pre-styling era was offered in four modifications - two diesel and two gasoline. Both turbodiesels of the M57 series, which are in-line "six", had the same volume of 2993 cubic meters. see, but different settings of output power - 231 and 286 hp. Gasoline units represented by a six-cylinder 3.0 272 hp engine. and V-shaped "eight" 4.8 355 hp. were deprived of turbocharging. The top engine was equipped with systems of stepless valve timing and valve lift. All engines worked in conjunction with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Restyling in 2010 significantly influenced the technical characteristics of the crossover, as a major adjustment was made to the line of motors and the gearbox was replaced. Diesel engines from the pre-reform machine remained in service, but they underwent modernization. The three-liter "six", working in the modification of the BMW X5 30d, added 14 hp. power and 20 Nm of torque (up to 245 HP and 540 Nm, respectively). The top diesel from the 40d version also improved both indicators, increasing the maximum output to 306 hp. and 600 Nm.

More tangible changes have taken place in the range of gasoline engines. The former "aspirated" engines gave way to turbocharged units - a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine of the N55 series with a capacity of 306 hp. (modification of the BMW X5 35i) and a 4.4-liter V8 from the N63 family, delivering up to 407 hp. (BMW X5 50i). The installation of turbo engines added agility to the crossover, allowing the most powerful gasoline version to "throw off" a whole second from its previous acceleration rate to 100 km / h (it was 6.5 s, now it is 5.5 s). A significant contribution to improving the dynamic characteristics of the restyled BMW X5 E70 was made by the new 8-speed automatic transmission ZF, which replaced the 6-speed box.

The technology revised during the renovation also affected fuel consumption. Diesels began to consume an average of about 7.5 liters (previously it was almost 9 liters). The gasoline 306-horsepower turbo engine also turned out to be more economical than its predecessor - 10.1 liters versus 11.7 liters.

BMW X5M E70 is the most striking and colorful example of the fact that the BMW company produces not only powerful, bright and competitive cars, but also cars of fairly high quality.

BMW X5M with dignity took over the niche of the first, and coped with this task perfectly well. It was originally positioned as a sports car and was first presented in April 2009 at the International Auto Show in New York.

The fact that the X5 M belongs to the class of sports models is confirmed by the presence of characteristic “gills” on the front side fenders, as well as 20-inch light-alloy wheels installed on it. Also, the car received a special exhaust system with twin tailpipes, which was typical for the M Series models.

The interior, in turn, was made in the traditional M-style to the smallest detail. Indicator gauges and a tachometer were perfectly combined on the dashboard, delighting the eye and significantly increasing driving comfort, a variable warning zone, as well as a specific, functional and white display backlight. On top of that, the sporty crossover has heated seats, a climate control program and electric seat adjustment with memory function.

Engine

On the first X5 M, the E70 was fitted with Twin Scroll Twin Turbo direct fuel injection and twin turbocharging systems, which allowed 555 hp to be squeezed out.

The "High Precision Injection" direct fuel injection system has been improved, which has significantly reduced the amount of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, and, as a result, the car fully met the requirements of environmental standards.

Transmission

With the 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission, it is now possible to maintain a manual shift mode. Especially for this, there were "paddle shifters" on the steering wheel.

Equipment

Despite its excellent dynamics, the X5M E70 also offers the highest level of efficiency in its segment thanks to a combination of EfficientDynamics technologies, braking energy recovery, an electric fuel pump and a removable A / C compressor.

The software system has also proven itself very well. The general parameters and characteristics of the system allow you to take full control of the drive system and chassis, as well as effectively distribute the traction force between the right and left rear wheels, which in turn increases the vehicle's stability and control accuracy.

The M X5 E70 was equipped with a rear axle ride height regulator and air suspension. A special system for controlling the stiffness of the shock absorbers and suspension was also installed. The updated steering characteristics are particularly noteworthy. The special Servotronic system significantly strengthens the steering gear (which depends on the driving speed), which significantly increases the steering precision even at high speeds.

BMW introduced a replacement for the M E71 in 2015 -.

Videos of BMW X5M E70

Good day to all. I would like to tell you about a very controversial car - BMW X5 in the back of E70. I got the car, I knew it in general for a long time, but without details, as I drove a Merce. These cars are not from this world.

The first sensation is toughness, compared to Moers. The steering wheel is tight as in the Zhiguli. The first week was spent getting used to a new type of driving, then it began. For some, BMW X 5 is a dream car, an ideal, a standard, what a real car should be.

Someone is afraid of such cars, the car is dangerous for everyone, they are afraid like fire, believing that BMW will leave its owner without a penny of money. Someone considers the owners of X5 people from higher worlds who bought a car just to show off.

And the whole salon was in some kind of black lumps, it greatly embarrassed me. Yes. One thing is for sure - this car does not leave anyone indifferent. This is a car from another world. If anyone is interested, then I will say that I owned many cars, including many VAZ models, foreign cars, but we will talk specifically about BMWs.

BMW is not an easy car. About 5-6 years ago, I owned a 3-series in the back of an E46 station wagon, with an M47N diesel engine. An excellent car with a good high-torque engine, a very ergonomic interior, comfortable sports seats, abs and dynamic stabilization systems and a bunch of other interesting things.

Rear-wheel drive and a sharp steering wheel made driving this car a delight. You seemed to burst into space from another dimension. Very roomy trunk, rear seats folded into a flat floor. Good sound insulation, decent full-time music. 6-stepping mechanics, the consumption in the city was 12-15 liters, on the highway 10, moreover, that I never really saved.

It did not cause problems, ceasing to worry, but the car seemed to take out, although, of course, there were repairs, but nothing critical. I think so by the age of 50 I will take myself an apartment in Cyprus and there I will communicate with men and drink vodka ... Since then I have become a fan of the BMW brand and, in particular, their diesel engines.

After the E46 320d, there were other cars, but I always wanted something powerful, tall, automatic and always diesel. A car from another reality. I began to choose X3 E83, 3.0d with an M57T2 engine, I was looking for a long time.

In our world, there were no good options, I was looking in other regions, BMW fans from other cities helped to diagnose. I have not found a good X3. Then I decided to look at the X5 E70. For me, X 5 has always been a dream, a car of a different scale, an unattainable dream, I always wanted it. But, firstly, it is expensive, and secondly, the myths about the X5's lameness, of course, were stopped. I started looking, choosing.

And finally, I came across a good BMW X5 E70 with minor deficiencies in the suspension. One lamp in the trunk lid did not work (this is the E70 dorestayling disease). Well, it's not a car, but a fairy tale, but we must remember one detail ... In general, I became the owner of an X5 E70 with an M57T2 engine with 235 hp.

Impressions

Pneumatic rear, by the way, plays a role only as a ride height regulator, that is, you can load at least as much into the trunk and the car will still stand as if it were no load.

I love my car very much ... There is also the X5 with active suspension and active stabilizers, with which, they say, the suspension is much more interesting. I myself have not ridden one, so I will not say anything.

But the suspension is ordinary - terribly dull. Rigid, but at the same time perfected handling, like in the top three, is not at all present here. Of the global shortcomings, perhaps all. Although no, not all.

The next drawback, which, most likely, arises from the first one is the creaky and rattling interior. Incidentally, I am a driver with great experience ... Honestly, at first I was taken aback. This is the X5, a car clearly from other worlds, the flagship of the BMW crossover family, which stands as something more.

The car is formidable, they are afraid of it. In the cabin, there are a lot of joints of dissimilar materials - different plastics, leather, things from another dimension, which frighten ordinary citizens who creak among themselves.

In fairness, it should be noted that 90% of the noises and squeaks were from the trunk and when I, after reading the Internet, manipulated the tailgate hinges and the rear seat brackets, most of the squeaks were gone. But the sediment remained. BMW - cars are complex, incredibly thin ... Perhaps, now all of the shortcomings.

Pleasant. The active steering rack is a great thing! Obviously created by people from another world. Turning around and maneuvering is a pleasure. Less than two turns from lock to lock. Bundle engine + box - a fairy tale. There is always enough power in all modes: city, highway - no difference. There is a small turbo lag on the bottom, but not critical.

The M57T2 engine is the final generation of the M-series diesel engines. The engine is excellent, reliable, devoid of any childhood illnesses, unlike BMW gasoline or N-series diesel engines.

ZF gearbox, 6 steps, there were no problems with it, everything is fine. And sometimes the smell in the cabin is the same as in a country toilet ... The xDrive all-wheel drive also showed its good side. Its work is invisible, you just drive in any weather conditions - and that's it. I myself am from the village, excuse me, that's why I immediately associate with a rural toilet ...

Snow on the road or ice - no difference. This car is stronger than you. I pressed the pedal and drove away while the mono drive is trying to move. Of course, the X5 is not an SUV, all-wheel drive is here only for confident driving in any road conditions, it is better not to go off-road.

I'm a normal man ... Although I went fishing on gullies, I followed Niva and Duster everywhere, but all the same, the overhangs of the X5 are decent, and the dimensions are rather big. Among other things, I had one of the pleasant options: a bi-xenon with an automatic high beam, it works quite correctly, only it does not see the dull dimensions of the car in front.

HI-FI music with 12 speakers, including subwoofers under the front seats, electric trunk, front-rear parking sensors + rear view camera, climate-comfort windshield, heated steering wheel. And diesel is more interesting to me than gasoline.

In general, the package bundle, of course, is far from complete, but not empty either. Yes, but the car is interesting on the road. The only thing I would like is comfort seats with non-breaking backrests. But I had the usual electric seats with memory + lumbar pad inflation, also very comfortable.

Now about the operation. I will say this: if you want to own a BMW, then learn to understand it yourself. I dreamed of buying thieves' numbers, but the toad was choking me. You must be and understand other worlds, otherwise after a while you will also say that BMW is a lumpy crap, give a lot of money to services that will cheat you, but there will be no sense from it.

I have been on BMW for a long time, since the first E46, I collected information, read, tried to do something, because it is interesting to me. I served my BMWs myself, again, because I'm interested.

The dirtiest work, or if I didn't want to mess around, gave it to a trusted service, but, again, always knowing what exactly I needed to change and what was needed for this. I always changed the oil, the filters myself, it is easier there than on the Zhiguli. The only thing is, replacing the air filter on the M57T2 motor requires a little skill.

In terms of maintenance costs, which I changed in a little over a year: after purchase - changing the oil in the automatic transmission completely, with replacing the pallet, sealing sleeve and mechatronics glasses, the pallet is exclusively the original or ZF (which, in fact, is also the original) - about 15-17 tr., The front lower levers are the most vulnerable place in the suspension, I took TRW (they are supplied to the conveyor) - 10 tr. pair.

Lantern in the trunk lid (on dorestayls flow) - 3.5 tr. Magnetti Marelli (also, in fact, the original). Then I changed the thermostats (main and ugr) - 3 tr. for both (original) + 2 or 3 tr. replacement. I changed one front hub, it was my own fault - I went with an imbalance on the wheel. Everything, nothing else seems to have changed. Only oil and filters, pads.

I drove in a little over a year, about 30,000 km. The total mileage at the time of sale is 184,000 km. And, I will say so, for this car, such a mileage is nonsense. How the vehicle is maintained and operated is very important. Initially, you need to do a thorough diagnosis and not buy a wrung-out car, albeit a little cheaper - it will come out sideways.

About diesel. It started up in frost, at -27-29 it started up. It will start at -35, the main thing is that the glow plugs, the glow block are in good working order and good diesel fuel is filled in. The X5 also has a very tricky battery charging system. If an AGM battery is installed, then it does not fully charge, maximum 80%, such a charging strategy.

On short trips, it generally discharges even in -30 frost. With a 50% battery charge, you won't start, it's just that the electronics will not allow you to turn the starter, since the X5 is a very energy-loaded car. It is necessary to register the KVNK short trip profile in the FA vehicle. In the cold, my car started up from 1.5 - 2 revolutions, the main thing is to give it these two revolutions.

A very interesting topic is BMW coding. Many parameters are configurable. There is a sea of ​​information on the net. There is not so much detailed information on any car. Take it, figure it out and do it! In general, you can talk about BMW for a long time.

Outcome

Let me make a small conclusion. BMW X5 E70 undoubtedly scares everyone and haunts anyone, a car from other worlds ... Excellent aggressive design, good driving characteristics, the best (in my opinion) diesel engines. Very roomy and functional, comfortable, powerful car. With proper care, this is a very reliable car, I have never got up somewhere, all repairs are planned. Of the shortcomings, I note - a dull stiff suspension, which sometimes really infuriated with our roads; squeaky interior (again, on bad roads). The rest of the car is perfect. Would I buy such a car again? Perhaps yes, subject to thorough diagnostics and, most likely, with Dynamic Drive suspension and comfortable saddles. But for starters, I would still ride the Tuareg on pneuma and compare.

Sales market: Russia.

The BMW X5 E70 is the second generation of the X5 luxury crossover, which replaced the E53 in November 2006. The E70 is equipped with a wide range of high-tech innovations, including BMW iDrive (standard) and, for the first time in BMW history, a third row of seats (optional) increasing the seating capacity of up to 7 people. The state-of-the-art safety system includes a unique rear section design to ensure the safety of third-row passengers in the event of a rear-end collision. The outstanding sports version of the X5 M went on sale in autumn 2009. This car, which stands apart in its model range, received the same power plant as the X6 M - a V8 turbo engine with a maximum power of 555 hp. and a torque of 680 Nm. In addition, the vehicle is equipped with M Dynamic Performance Control for optimum handling. Above all, it is worth noting that the BMW X5 is not just a luxurious and richly equipped car, but also practical. The luggage compartment in the model with two rows of seats is an impressive 620 liters. With the rear row folded down, a total of 1,750 liters of space are freed up.


Even with the appearance of the first generation in 1999, the X5's luxury affiliation was confirmed by a high level of equipment, which became even higher with the arrival of the second generation of the model, and in terms of quality and cost of finishing rose to the level of the BMW 7 Series. The initial configuration assumes the following functions: electric windows and side mirrors, heated side mirrors and washer nozzles, adjustable column, start from a button, multifunction steering wheel, fabric upholstery, climate control, color multifunction display, CD player, standard set of front parking sensors and behind. More expensive trim levels include bi-xenon headlights, light and rain sensors, heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, leather upholstery, panoramic roof, CD or DVD changer, passenger entertainment system, Bluetooth communication system, etc. The problem of placing small items has also been successfully solved - all kinds of pockets, shelves, drawers, cup holders are ideally dispersed throughout the cabin. In 2011, a cosmetic restyling of the X5 was carried out. The front bumper and air intakes were modified.

The X5 has a wide range of motors. For models before the 2011 restyling, the Russian buyer was offered two options for gasoline power units (modifications 30i, 272 hp and 48i, 355 hp) and two diesel (30d, 231 hp and 35d, 286 hp). .). After restyling, naturally aspirated gasoline engines were replaced by turbocharged ones (35i and 50i), 306 and 407 hp. respectively. In addition, the power of the base diesel modification was raised to 245 hp, and two new ones were added to replace the 30d version - 40d (306 hp) and M50d (381 hp). The latter has outstanding dynamics - acceleration to 100 km / h in 5.4 seconds. This is, of course, less than that of the X5 50i, but by only 0.1 seconds, which, of course, cannot fail to impress. And the torque of this modification of a three-liter turbodiesel with direct injection commands respect - 740 Nm in a wide speed range (2000-3000 rpm).

Speaking of the BMW X5, in fact, as of the entire X line, one cannot fail to mention the xDrive all-wheel drive system. During normal driving, the torque is divided along the axles in a ratio of 40:60, but depending on road conditions, the torque is redistributed by the multi-plate clutch between the axles in the range from 0 to 100%. With the arrival of the new generation X5, the system has undergone a number of changes, accordingly with the increasing importance of electronics, where it is standard to ensure interaction with the dynamic stability control system. The suspension can be equipped with optional "Dynamic Drive" (adjustable stiffness of the stabilizers) and "Active Steering" (active steering), as well as rear pneumatic elements and adjustable shock absorbers.

In terms of safety, the BMW X5 is one of those vehicles that can be considered a benchmark, as evidenced by numerous safety ratings. The equipment includes 6 airbags, including front, side and deployable curtain airbags, ISOFIX mounts, belts with pretensioners. In addition, the standard equipment includes anti-lock braking system (ABS), brake force distribution (EBD), brake assist system (BAS), hill descent assist (DAC), tire pressure monitoring system. Lane Keeping Assist, adaptive headlights and high-beam assist are available as options.

You shouldn't expect outstanding off-road performance from the X5, after all, this crossover is not intended for extreme sports, but for fast and comfortable driving. Perfectly tuned suspension and handling, powerful engines, luxury equipment - these are its main assets. With the introduction of the second generation BMW X5 into the used car segment, these vehicles are becoming more affordable, while maintaining a sufficient degree of polish to meet the optimal criteria between price and quality. The wide motor range makes the choice even more interesting.
