r/BMWX3

Just found this sub and thought I'd join. Bought this late in '22 (nearing 50k miles now) and like it alot. M styling, suspension & brakes but still just a 4. I usually change cars every two or three years but (no offense whatsoever to the folks who like/own 25s or 26s) I just can't get into the new style or interior. I DO love the ride of the new ones that don't have the runflat tires I have. Hopefully there'll be something in the 27 line I like, I'd like to stay with BMW.

Hi

Just got a 2026 BMW X3. Does anybody recommend all weather floor mats? Theres so many options on Amazon and its seems all these after market car products have a 4.5 or greater rating.

Looking for a recommendation from somebody who already has been using some.

Thanks

What up guys I just picked up a 2021 x3 30i xdrive im looking to do a pretty basic OTS BM3 tune but I was wondering what yall are doing to bypass or unlock the DME TIA

Hey guys! Are there any options for a rear diffuser for my x3 30i (non m-sport). This is my current rear end. I hate the stock diffuser and the silver part. I am wrapping it black, but, i was wondering if they make any rear diffusers or if anyone has found one for this car (besides maxton’s design rear diffuser which is just slits, but if there are no other options i’ll just go with that one)

thank you!!

Recently got a low mileage 2021 M40i. It’s super clean, only thing that’s bothering me is that the left DRL is a bit off. I have heard of the issues with the module/ burning the tube, so I am thinking it could be that.

Wondering if anyone has used bimmercode to adjust the brightness on one side to even it out. Ultimately if it is just the module I’d get that replaced, but also not sure how to find that out without actually disassembling.

I also am aware of the ability to turn the DRLs off during the daytime in iDrive, but I’d like to have them on if I can even it out.

Any idea what this noise is? This isn’t even the only issue. Theres a slight vibration at idle and above 60mph it gets worse. But only when Not accelerating. Which the ai says could be driveshaft linkage. I plan on taking it to mechanic on Monday to assess the situation.

There’s a couple other minor issues I’ve found that’s going to bring the repair bill up as well.

Headlight high beams only work when the stick is pulled in. When it clicks forward, the light comes on the dash but no brights.

I really want to love this car and want to believe these are manageable repairs. But this noise has me the most concerned. Thanks for sharing your time and expertise!

I’m happy with any B58 honestly. Alpine White FTW. Render vs IRL?

Any advice please? 2017/11 G3X, what can be done? After connecting its just loading and then a re try message received back

Bought it two weeks ago, after I finally got tired of driving my '20 Ram Rebel. Obviously the difference is immeasurable, lolol. Lucked out finding a '23 in Tanzanite Blue with 51K on it. If the interior had been mocha or cognac, that would've been great, but alas....just black. Oh well.
