Good job explaining every button and up close shot. Another guy on video didn’t do his nearly this good! Waiting for our x5 any day now. I didn’t realize there is so much to learn so I’ll have to watch you again. Thanks
I wish that where I got my BMW they would have taken the time like you did to explain to me all the buttons in my car. Very Very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to explain.
Outstanding explanation of all the buttons/functions, wish my dealer had spent this much time with me, thanks
Glad you found the video helpful!
Thank you so much. These videos are super helpful. I have used them to learn all of the ins and outs of my new 2024 X5.
You're very welcome, really happy to hear that you're enjoying the videos! Thanks for the positive feedback :)
Love your watch, it fits u perfectly! Thanks again!
Excellent tutorial! Just bought a certified 2024 X5 xDrive here in Central Florida. Did not get anywhere near the explanation of everything that you have just provided. Very thorough and thank you.
did you get very much of a break in price on the used X5?
@@gosman949 I think I did okay. Not great but not a terrible deal either. Certified pre-owned with 9k miles on it. Full warranty goes through September of 2028. Car is absolutely immaculate. Not a scratch on it or a scuff on the wheels. I believe a 2025 version with same options goes for about 72k. I paid 63.
Congrats on your purchase! Glad that this tutorial was helpful for you. Wish you many happy miles in your X5!
@@GregMartinezRealty did you get the all wheel drive for that price? In Florida you probably don't need AWD.
@@gosman949 Yes I did. XDrive. I agree on not needing it daily in Florida. But will come in handy from time to time in the rainy season when you hit a bit of the "black ice". Also make occasional trips to some higher elevations in North Carolina. Glad I had all-wheel drive on my previous car (Audi SQ7) when we were there last summer.
❤THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO. It saves a lot of my time to read the drivers manual. Appreciated for your efforts! 😊
Greatly appreciate this upload.
Glad you enjoyed!
Be bought the 2024 X5 xDrive40i, lots of very in-depth electronics! GREAT video, learning as we go so I may be back to ask a question or 10.
Ronnie makes the best videos. This one convinced me to settle on the X5 and made the multi-contour seats a must have option. Thanks for all the info Ronnie.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy the videos, and congrats on your X5!
Is there an option for massage seats? I tried ordering mine with it but they said to me there was not the option anymore is that true?
@@en5mid1 That seems to be the case for the 40i models. You can spec it as an option for the 50e.
TBH, it’s frustrating to spend $80k on a car and not be able to get something as basic as ventilated or massage seats. I’ve seem rental Kias with that option.
Simply Super and very helpful. Thank You!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed!
Got my '24 X5 yesterday. Thanks for the extra help in becoming more familiar with these controls. Great job!!
Awesome, congrats! Thank you, glad you found the video useful.
buy or leased it ?
Such a great video. Awesome
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
Very good. Thanks.
just got the car 3 days ago. still learning all the features. Thanks for the great vid
You're very welcome! Glad you found the video useful.
Great video and explanation!
Can't wait for mine! Great video
Thank you, glad you enjoyed! Enjoy your X5 when you get it, they're great!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Ronnie!
You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
I am buying a x5 40i on Friday. Watching this video to save time at the dealership Thank you!
Great video. I picked up my X5 yesterday. This was very helpful
Congrats on your X5, glad you found the video helpful!
Very informative. Thank you for the comprehensive overview. I'm waiting for my '24 X7 M60i to come in and I'm guessing the controls will be very similar.
Thanks, and you're welcome! Glad you found the video useful. That is correct, the controls, save for some that are related to the third row and potential options differences, will be very similar to your X7.
Little known fact: The remote rear hatch open/close switch was first available on the 2008 X5, as a $500 option!
Interesting fun fact!
@@bmwofmorristown9038
Is the ride quality and suspension in comfort mode better inn the 40i compared to the m60i????
i have 2024 x5 . When i save my presets , seats, radio etc to my BMW ID and my wife uses her BMW ID the presets for her don't recall and vice versus when i reenter with my BMW ID.. Is there a way to have the memory presets recall when a certain BMW ID is used
Thank You
Got my x5 last week. Thanks for speeding us through learning curve
Congratulations, enjoy! You're welcome, glad you found it helpful!
buy or leased it ?
@@regmatt bought it
Great video!
Thank you!
EXCELLENT video. Just purchased yesterday. Dealership went through some of this but this video was VERY complete. Thank you!
Thank you, glad it was helpful for you!
great video, I got my X5 4 weeks ago and I refer to your video a lot to learn about different features on how to use or what to do with certain buttons. This video help me learn a lot but I am still learning about the self park feature. is there a video on that?
Congrats on your recent X5 purchase, glad that the video is helpful for you! We do have a video on the self-parking feature: ruclips.net/video/ByX6R1DTfJs/видео.html I believe that video uses the older iDrive system, but many of the same principles apply. Maybe we'll do an updated video with the new iDrive.
Great job on this one, took delivery of mine 2 weeks ago and love it. You should do a demo of the HK audio system and sound settings. So far, it sounds good but looses some clarity IMO when you push the volume past 50%. I would have optioned the B&W system had it been available. Not going to mess with upgrading the system and there is not any thorough reviews for optimal settings of the HK that I can find for the new X5. Audio is always subjective to the listener and genre but I think many would find it helpful. Thanks again for this detailed demonstration!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video, and congrats on your new X5! That's an interesting idea... I would have to do some research for that video as audio is a bit outside my area of expertise (I think the H/K system in it's factory configuration sounds awesome), but that's definitely a good idea! I do think many owners would appreciate that, thanks for the suggestion.
How does the auto start stop engine feature work for you ? My understanding you can't disable it. That may be a deal breaker for me. I have on my Audi 5 and I have the option to turn off. Try turning down the bass on the audio if you crank the volume at high levels.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 I agree that it sounds quite good, especially when just sitting in the garage tuning the EQ to taste. I personally have the logic seven at either the lowest setting or off. Driving at 50 miles an hour with road noise, I am thinking it might have something to do this how the system adjusts itself to compensate for that. It is very subjective, and you cannot load a good video/audio demo due to RUclips compression of the file. That said, it would be interesting for someone on the Bmw team to offer settings for various types of music as a general template. Have a great Father’s Day weekend! Thanks for replying back to me.
@@ccfunkster you can by driving in the custom sport mode if you want the cushy ride but avoid that feature. I do that or simply just toggle the shifter when I come to a stop. Also, I believe it keeps running if outside temp is above 90. I will have to see if that’s adjustable. Perhaps BMW can chime in here. Hope that helps a bit. I traded a GC SRT and the X5 exceeds all expectations even with the turbo 6. Wife doesn’t miss the harsh ride or the rumble😆
@azrealestatesvc3774 Thank you very much for the information. I will test drive them when they become available late this summer. I want a soft ride now that I,m older and not want to be forced to shift to sport mode to disable the auto start stop engine . Plus, it's harder on engine and fuel economy. Anyway, thanks for your help.
Awesome video, question. 2024 BMW X5 xDrive40i, how do you do a hard reset of the vehicle's infotainment system and start from factory install ?
Thank you! The process is the same as it's always been: with the engine running, press and hold the volume knob until the screen turns off. Factory reset can be performed via system settings.
Curious about the ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL. I don’t see the buttons but I noticed it had the radar. I have a 2020 x3 with ACC and it’s on the buttons on the steering wheel
They all have the housing for the radar now, the ones without the package just don't actually have the sensor behind it.
One thing I just found out is that you can save the passenger seat settings by using the #2 button on the driver's door. After the passenger gets their seat set, press the #2 button and then press the Seat setting save button, either 1 or 2.
Also noticed that we lost the latch to release the rear seat backs. You used to be able to easily flip the lever on either side back in the very back of the cargo area if you wanted to put large items in the cargo area. Now you have to release them on the seat back.
Interesting, I'll have to try that seat memory trick! And yes, but IIRC those latches were only ever on the sedans?
What happens if you are driving at 85mph hands free and road works suddenly start with narrowed properly unmarked or marked different colour/pattern temporary lanes?
Thanks , but if you have the same for F15 I will be really appreciate
Question, got an update and now when in the Home screen the "Climate" access centered at the bottom of the Infotainment screen has disappeared. How do I get this back?
Yeah, I'd definitely want one!
You're not alone :)
The “autopilot” is not equipped on this right ?
Can you please create a video for 2024 X5 Welcome Light Animation? With all the three modes. Please.
BMW has always had the most/best seat adjustably and for that alone I'd keep buying them.
Fantastic video, thank you so much. Just got my 2024 and it's my 3rd X5 so I'm embarrassed to even ask this: I don't see how to adjust the cruise control distance between cars? My last one had the 3 options short/medium/longest. How can I do this or is this no longer any option? Next: Heads up Display is my most valuable function and I've got it on Apple Car Play but using the microphone and holding it down doesn't get me to guidance. I can't figure out what I need to do to set this up? I want to use car play I THINK. Someone please help. Thank you.
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed the video! Regarding your first question, that adjustment is a setting in iDrive now (assuming your car is equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control). Go to menu, driving settings, driver assistance, driving, then adjust following distance from there. Regarding your second question, as long as you have Siri enabled on your phone, you should be able to hold down the button to access it and get directions via whatever iPhone app you like. If you just press and release the microphone button, you'll get BMW's personal assistant which can give you guidance via iDrive. Hope that helps!
Got the Siri figured out and this is so helpful on the distance control *(yes, I have adaptive cruise control and honestly couldn't live without it since we make big drives). P.S. I'm on my 4th X5 not 3rd so I truly am embarrassed! Thanks again, you are great. @@bmwofmorristown9038
Happy to help, congrats on X5 #4 :)
The driver passenger seat control feature is a part of what option or package? Or is it std?
The feature that allows the driver to move the passenger seat is standard.
How does the adaptive cruise work with tech plus? Not the usual buttons on the wheel
It's the same way as always, just the following distance adjustment has been moved to iDrive rather than having dedicated buttons on the steering wheel.
I remember X5 before LCI had auto electronic rolling cover in trunk, they still have that option on LCI models?
I have not yet seen that option on an LCI model. It may come back in the future, but I do not believe that it is currently available.
Just picked up my new 24 x6. This was the first video I watched and it was extremely helpful. The technology in the i8 system can be overwhelming unless you eat it like an elephant…. A few bites at a time. My apologies to the circus trainers 😊
Congrats on your new X6! Glad you found the video helpful, it is definitely best to learn things one at a time. I'm glad that's working for you!
“For your donuts and drifting needs in your X5” 😂😂😂
You never know :)
Hey Ronnie, do you prefer the 40i with m sport or m sport professional or just sport/ x line? Thanks
Definitely M Sport! I prefer M Sport on just about everything in our lineup, and I really think the X5 looks quite a bit better with the M Sport package. I think M Sport professional sharpens up the look nicely too, with the black grille especially. The X Line still looks nice, but the M Sport package is definitely my preference.
Is four-zone climate control even available in the US, specifically on the 2024 s/xDrive40i models? The build configurator lists no individual option for this, nor a Climate package. (I do see the Climate Comfort appears available on the 50e but even that makes no mention of rear climate control).
Climate Comfort Package is still available on the order guides, so you should be able to order it. Things are added and removed from the BMWUSA website all the time, it's not always to be trusted 100%!
Can you do the 2024 X7
Idrive not working CarPlay google map and Waze all BMW idrive 8 and 8.5 error kindly fix the bug
Do a video of X6, like this one 😊
All the controls for X6 will be exactly the same as they are in this video :)
It would be nice for us newbees, to mention what package includes some of the buttons and controls. Like those seats. I'm sure, were part of a package that cost more coin!
Noted, thanks for the feedback!
Does the back seats recline ?
Slightly, yes.
Why is there missing the button with the camera on it for side view/panorama view (between traction and PDC button) although the car has 360 camera?
That has been lumped into the parking sensor button (accessible through that menu).
@@bmwofmorristown9038 and what button is there in generally? I know that the last one is vor the hybrid modell but the other one ?
Which option is the 3d view please?
That's part of the Parking Assistance Package
What is the new hazards led feature. The fade feature?
I'm not sure what you mean by that specifically. The hazards work as they always have, although they do fade in and out, as you mentioned.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 yeah they fade whys that?
Does 2024 BMW X5 Xdrive 40i has Digital Key Plus?
Yes
Sadly there are hardly any buttons left these days 😩. Great video!
Definitely a lot fewer than there used to be... thank you!
My Cellphone doesn’t have any buttons neither. 😂. It’s the future. Car Manufacturers are moving towards that direction for cost and to easily fix any glitches via a software update. Plus they can add more (NEW)features as needed. Tesla uses a Hugh Screen for most of its controls and the customers would receive updates to enhance their driving experience.
@@Carlos1075so they can update my switch. Got it.
How about remote start?
Done via the key or MyBMW app!
RADIO. Did I miss the audio demo?! Is there ANY WAY to stop the radio display from jumping up to full screen!? I like to see what else is playing! HELP!!!
I do believe that's a setting that can be adjusted. Not 100% sure, but take a look through the display settings.
What are the "cruise control modes" please?
That button doesn't have a function in cars without the Driving Assistant Professional package.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 thank you, and with said package? Does one have the ability to turn off adaptive cruise in favor of classic cruise?
@@hellblast911 Yes, with driving assistant professional you have the choice between adaptive cruise w/ lane assist, adaptive cruise, and regular cruise control.
Can you explain why BMW navigation does not provide a route list for the entire trip? I’ve had a route list on a 2005 Acura, 2012 audi and 2018 Subaru and yet BMW doesn’t provide it. Why is that?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by route list. BMW will provide you with alternate routes and a route preview. Not sure what else could be needed.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 meant a detailed route with street names and distance as you would see in a Google maps
Can you please do this with 2024 X3
Already did! This video shows a 2022 X3, but everything is the same as it would be in a 2024 ruclips.net/video/ioNPrI495yw/видео.html
@@bmwofmorristown9038 thank you!
the 2023 model is less complicated than that tricky big screen!
We've actually found that many people find ID8 (the newer curved display) easier to use than the previous system, at least once you're used to it. A bit more intuitive and easier to navigate.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 but air conditioner controls inside the display. Shameful!
Very detailed video, Good work. Although a better phone or recording equipment would have done a world of good to the already good presentation !
Thank you, glad you found it useful. I appreciate the feedback and suggestion, noted!
BMW should make seat controls like Merc. I don’t know bmw puts the control where they are awkward to reach.
They're moving to the doors on some cars. iX and 7 series for example. They're easy enough to reach when on the side of the seat though, that's where seat controls on cars have been for decades.
Don't loose the buttons...I hate the iPad look
This is the way things are moving... for now at least. It's a change, but easy to get used to, and everything works really well once you learn it!
Sadly the air vents do not work the way they should,. Sit in the car, blow the air straight on ur face , tell me if it blows,. Do it in a normal car, or model 3, n y know how BMW has designed these vents !!
We've found that they work quite well... perhaps the car you were in was not working properly, or you didn't have it adjusted correctly.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 lol, so you are sure the air vents will blow the air to your face ?? Not when you put your face near to the vents but when you are in a regular seating position in the drivers seat??
Lots of reflections on the screen.
I try to avoid that as best as I can but it's difficult sometimes, but thanks for the feedback.
Referring to the car’s dashboard/ media center not the camera man. You did great!
Iphone 4 That is from 2010. They need to pay you better!
I HATE that BMW is remove so many buttons in their vehicles. I’m looking for a 2023 x5m and if I can’t find one with the color combo I want, I’m buying a different brand altogether.
Just picked my 2024 BMW X5 with Enhanced package and my beeping (acoustic) sound doesn’t work when unlocking/locking door.
That's a setting! Go to doors/windows, you'll see the setting in there. "Sound when locking/unlocking"
@@bmwofmorristown9038 yup, have it on. Still doesn’t work !
🤭 'Promo SM'
Think I went to BMW Genius school with this fella. But BMW really botched the interior on this one. BMW: You don’t need buttons… use the screen.
Wait until they do a new chassis code. No buttons at all soon. You can just tell the iDrive to roll up your windows soon. Haha
May be! I was there not too long ago :) To each their own but I've become a big fan of the newest interiors on X5 and X7.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 it’s a sneaky way to save costs and make you go through a screen. An entry level camera makes you go through a menu to change settings. A pro level camera has fast access to soar settings with buttons. I know cameras aren’t cars, but the buttons were even highlighted on delivery. Hey client, you can program your TPMS or numerous areas of iDrive to be one button away.
Benz win
Do they really tho...
As a current BMW driver I have to agree! I’m in a 21 Ametrin Metallic x5 MSport and the options I have now you can only get in the new 24 Comp. ! It’s very sad that BMW choose to raise the price but at the same time provide less options for that raised price! Truthfully on Reddit most hate the new 24 x5 especially how boxy it looks and are comparing it to a Kia ! They also removed most of the front ambient lighting for just a 15 inch x x x x x 5 color strip! Also have to use the infotainment for climate which is just plan annoying! Looks like I’ll be staying in my 21 x5 !
@@MrRover30 i agree
BMW really messed up on this model! The interior took a decline! The ambient lighting has decreased! They took away the led strip and the contrast strip! Also removed the led from the back of the seats! Such a very bad move!
I don't agree that the LCI took the X5 in the wrong direction in any way, but if you do feel like those minor changes are downgrades, the vast improvements in other areas more should more than make up for it.
Why does BMW insist on making the front ends ugly on their vehicles? First with the horrible oversized bucktooth grilles, now with squaring off the bottom of the front end, making look like a Mack dump truck? I used to really like the X5, but not anymore. 🤮
Interesting you say that... the M3 and M4, and other recent models, have definitely gotten their fair share of criticism regarding their designs, specifically the front-ends. But the new X5 seems to be pretty universally liked. If you haven't seen one in person yet, I'd definitely give it a chance. As is always true, pictures don't do justice, and it looks really nice in the metal, in my opinion.
just watch video X5 G05 2018 and you will get absolutely the same information :)
Shopping and looking at these hard and wow as an engineer I’m at a loss for words on how I feel about all this gobbledygook. Not so much the screens but the screens and physical buttons they chose seem awkward. “well, we definitely want a mute and volume button but let’s make it really tiny. It’ll be the button they reach for the most so let’s make it really small.” And this turn signal let’s make it lightweight plastic so that it feels cheap in a $70,000 car. They went from something that exuded quality like a fine watch to what feels like massive cost savings. BMW engineers should have had to drive an old RDX and see what bad tech implementation is like for the driving experience. Bottom line I expect far better from BMW when it comes to the ultimate driving machine.
Well, the volume knob is bigger now than it ever was in E or F chassis cars, at least from what I remember. And the turn signal feels fine to me :) That said, I understand many people's hesitance when it comes to adopting all this new tech. It's a big departure from what we're used to, but BMW has implemented it very well. Everything works reliably, it's easy to use, and despite what you said, the cars do feel very well-built. The G chassis BMWs *do* exude build quality. Sit in any new BMW and feel around the interior, press on both touch points and non-touch points and you'll see that everything feels extremely solid -- no creaks, squeaks, rattles or anything else. Sure, the sun visors are made out of a cheaper material than they used to be, but does that really matter when the car drives, works, and performs better than it ever has?
@@bmwofmorristown9038 Agree with your points. They do feel better and tighter. These are interesting times with new tech, supply chain issues, profitability and slowing market.
I have a Kia as a company car and like having button mapping (kind of but not really) and the lane following button on the steering wheel. Would like to see that on the bmw.
Do like that they can send out updates to the screen. But please don’t make me pay for apps in the future (they will).
@@bmwofmorristown9038 is the steering wheel leather wrapped? Or vegan?
