Hello. About to pick up my new (used) X5 and there are a few things I'm thinking about. It already has the stage one Dinan, AC Schnitzer suspension and 22" wheels.
AUDIO: I have the HK system but I'm looking to upgrade with the BAV Sound speakers. I might start with the 8" subs and if those sound good do the full stage one upgrade. Has anyone installed and what are your impressions?
EXHAUST: I wish Dinan made an exhaust but they do not. Looking at AC Schnitzer and Meister. Any opinions? Am I missing a good option? I want to hear the V8 but do not want to be overwhelmed or have drone. Maybe I will like the stock exhaust sound after I get some miles under my belt.
What else should be on my wish list of upgrades? Thanks!
BUMP. Does no one reply to threads in this forum???
On this X5 forum? - No.
The more "enthusiast" models such as the e39's, e38's, e36's, and e46's are where the action is.
This X5 forum has more e53/e70 owners...the f15 X5 isn't that common...take a look and you'll see that there probably isn't much of anything associated with the f15 X5 on the 1st 5 pages (and even deeper within). It's not that no one wants to answer you question...its just no one here (that is part of the vocal minority) is familiar with your model platform. Do you want suggestions/recommendations/answers from forum members not familiar with your platform? Probably not...so try not to be hostile because no one has answered. They just don't want to give you incorrect information.
Not to push you off of this forum...but you may want to look for a more f15/f16 active forum (like https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=507
Good luck...and hopefully you and other f15/f16 owners will chime in and discuss your issues/problems/solutions/mods/upgrades/etc here on this forum...so that that your platform will/can become a more common topic to discuss. Even if forum members don't have the newer model...reading input from f15/f16 driver's becomes part of our collective Rolodex of knowledge...that we all can pass on to others when those times come along.
