- Today we venture to the the top of a mountain with our cheap, manual BMW X5 to see what it can do. For the money, this is (the best) off road vehicle you can buy. Watch as we do our best to explore covered trails in the snow!

Awesome dog!
Great test & awesome dog 😂. Do you think the manual or auto transmission with manual option is better for this scenario? . I wanted my friend to buy an X5 before he bought his 740il . One thing I love about the X5 is the tail gate, makes it feel like a truck .
Finally some content
I was hoping for another X5 video lmao
6spd ftw!
But have you tried a 320i in a snowy ditch- slight work.
Sounds like you need some X-Drive :)
235/65 r17 tyres ?
How do you keep finding manual 4.4 X5's!?!?! Wish I knew before I rebuilt my m62tu in the e39
This one is a 3.0. We never got a 4.4 manual unfortunately
@@gasjunkies7048 LOL I thought I lost my mind. 25 year CCA member and I was banging my head against the wall cause I always wanted one and here I thought u went through 2 of them.
Ouch, timing chain go yum yum
What year?
Is that the diesel engine or petrol?
Petrol M54. We unfortunately didn't get diesel e53s in the states
@@gasjunkies7048 I have a 4.6is e53 here in New Zealand. I also have a 330d e46 and the diesel engines are excellent. Does the x5 feel gutless with a m54b30?

It doesn’t feel gutless. It feels natural. Naturally aspirated 6, sounds good, it’s super reliable, it will outlast any other engine that was for the X5. Definitely not gutless but does lack power. Still fun to drive, it’s not worth getting a 4.4i over a 3.0i in my opinion. 4.8is is another story.
@@aidenp5768 Yes m54 is a nice engine - I have many - but it wont outlast the m57, not even close. m62 has chain guide issues, and n62 has its own issues too, but m57 is the most reliable and much more powerful than the m54.
@@zerotohero7449
Oh yea In the USA we don’t get the M57. What’s the highest milage M57 you’ve heard of though? I’m curious on how long those last.
Wear muscle ?
