So I changed my old BMW 5 series touring 20d for a BMW X5 30D my thinking here was my 5 series was a great tow car and very stable however I have had some back issues so wanted an suv for easier access and having had a discovery 4 30 sdv6 which was excellent I thought this size car would be perfect and indeed the X5 is much better to access and the higher seating position is also great however it’s not as good at towing as my old 5 series don’t get me wrong it’s got way more power but it doesn’t feel as stable it’s quite wallow especially on country roads to the point I needed to select sports mode to make it more stable even solo it feels wallow in normal mode nothing like the 5 series and nothing like my old discovery 4 so I am now thinking have I made a mistake?
Would love to hear other X5 owners views
