This is my first attempt at doing a DIY video so please forgive the quality of the video and editing. This is a DIY for 2019 G05 BMW X5 Tension Strut replacement. The dealer and independents wanted to charge over $1100 per side. The parts are ~$280 per side so while not cheap should not cost so much for this repair. Save over a thousand dollars by doing this yourself
