More things found broken on BMW F15 X5 40e Hybrid. BMW Premium Selection failed to spot the defects?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Yes, you guessed it, found more things broken on my 6 day old used (Video was recorded last week and finished editing yesterday) BMW X5 brought from Premium Selection. At this point I'm a little disappointed by "fame" premium selection used car pre 360 inspection check.
But I'm going to give them a little more benefit of the doubt and hopefully they sort out those issues for me.

Thanks for watching. Do you have F15 X5?
For the fuel flap to open did you wait for it to show you the "Refueling Plausible" message? Sometimes it gets stuck because some would click the button and immediately try to open the fuel flap which causes it to be jammed. Even after it show the message and it can't be opened, the service centre can sort it out.

If the hybrid battery completely die off without replacing it, can this car still drive like a normal car?

Short answer, NO
I think you should quickly get the new PPF film on the headlights as they protect from chips you'll pick up along the highway travel on a daily basis. Those are not burn marks, they are simply adhesive from the old PPF which can be cleaned with just WD-40. Polish will leave scars or swirl marks on the plastic lens surface.

Hi ... how much longer the hybrid-battery warranty for your units? Are you expecting to change it soon? Can you estimate how much the cost.. tq

You need get only the AGM battery. It's very expensive

At one time was considering f10 too since it's way cheaper but I prefer SUV high position driving so scrap the f10 idea. But so far the issues highlighted are mainly because the BMW Premium Selection either did not do a 360 inspection or they did a rush job. Either way it's easily sorted out since my X5 still has warranty

The latest one G05 model with B58 engine is alright. The F15 model were using older 2.0 litre which is underpower when battery not charged. And the battwry for this generation isnt matured yet.

Limited electric range ok....not a 45e...but 2 litre engine is far from underpowered...rapid effortless acceleration..
I guess bmw premium selection will sure want to earn profit from selling preowned car. The premium that u paid will not be able for them to cover every component spoilt and you already using it. Otherwise they will forever need to replace which eating up their profit until u stop driving the car :). If all their customers are like u think they would close shop by end this year... Is there any written doc from bmw premium whats their responsibility to cover for component spoilt?

F30 got quite some issue. Was almost gotten F30 way back but switched to Q50 instead. I have owned F10 528i 3.0 litre, now 530i and newest X5 45e. The previous F10 and current G30 are great. No issue except for some motherboard for driving assistant. But none of them caused me stranded.
