  • What’s up, guys!
    Today, I took my BMW X3 off roading to see how it does and to answer the general question of “Are crossovers good off road?”
    Watch the video and see how it goes!
    Disclaimer: The BMW that I am using is a daily driver so I am trying not to break anything and the actuator gear has gone bad so no AWD:(
    I hope you all enjoy the content, as I do enjoy making it!
    Thank you for watching and make sure you subscribe!

    Just love the sound of that exhaust at start up. Despite the e53 x5 having same m54 the x3 sounds way better.

      I have an 05 2.0D with a tune.. great daily and also fun to unplug the transfercase wire for full rwd ice/snow skids 😎

      Love my X3! Feels like driving a sports car! Sadly, she suffered several issues with the cooling system and may need a head gasket:/ (got her like that) but hopefully I will have more time this summer to fix it! Also have other project cars to do🥲

    Is this xDrive? It looked like a standard rear wheel drive. I didn't see any engagement of the 4x4 anywhere when it got stuck on rough terrain

    • @sammyquick793
      @sammyquick793  2 года назад +4

      It is but in the transfer case there is an actuator gear and they usually get worn out, especially with higher mileage. So I noticed it does work, but it will slip and not drive the four wheels under alot of stress. I have seen videos and they’re not hard to replace so hopefully this summer!

      @@sammyquick793 Have an e53 with the same actuator, mine was worn and it gets worse gas mileage, slower and awd is no where near as effective in the snow or when I went camping. But this was 2 years ago, super easy to fix and inexpensive. Also I recommend turning dsc off for fixed power delivery to the wheels, transfer case behaves differently, it’s pretty much a true 4x4 system when it’s off.

    What's the point of making a video like this a worn AWD actuator, it doesn't show its full capabilities.

      Back when we filmed this we didn’t know it was worn until after the video was posted. Also, we didn’t do the Jeep trails because it was a daily.
