Some cars here have the same tpms sensor system. My friends 2017 accord coupe doesn’t use sensors. It just senses a difference in tire rotations like you stated. Same with my scion tc. Had a flat and was confused when the tire came off and I didn’t see a tpms sensor. I replaced the tire and pushed the reset sensor and was back to business
During some periods when the canadian dollar sits lower it may be cheaper to import. Consider also that the gauges option by itself was quite a bit more expensive, so finding a comparable optioned X5 may be hard when the percentage of Diesel X5s was higher compared to US diesel to gas options.
If only diesel wasn't so expensive. Modern diesels can be damaged by biodiesel so you can't brew your own cheap fuel. 30MPG is nice for an SUV but that fuel cost lowers the benefit. It's good that this has a digital dashboard, having a kilometer-first speedometer would be annoying. The Canadians probably got halogen fog lights to make sure ice and snow melt off. Likewise, the power-closing doors are to ensure a seal to keep ice and cold out. Canada accepts both US and Euro vehicle standards so some interesting cars are sold up there, not to mention older US rebadges like Meteor and Acadian.
If it passes the bottle test you know it's a keeper!

Very interesting, eh??
7:25 yes. That wheel speed sensor based TPMS is common on audi/vw and Hondas.
Also some Canadian cars I've seen don't have tpms entirely because it's not legally required unlike in the USA.
Interesting eh! The diesel x5 is the most common version in the UK
Just delete the def system
@brianeugenelee my bad
On the horizon. -Owner
@@KitFox7 cool
Just bout a Lexus nx that was imported from Canada, pretty cool it has headlight washers that’s weren’t an option on us models
Hahahaha fill the DEF with maple syrup hahaha. Love your reviews Zack…cheers from Canada🇨🇦
Why would the owner import a BMW X5d when you can just buy on in the USA?

I don't know why this is bugging me to much, but I'm pretty sure the tires on the left wheels are mounted backwards.
They're not; Discount Tires originally did mount them incorrectly, I had them corrected. -Owner
Check for rust though
Do you know which city of the province is from
hood needs to be changed...big dent above the left headlight
Awesome!
Isn’t this car built in the US?
3:28 "a French town of Canada" Quebec is entire province (or state ) of Canada you silly Murican 🙄
Quebec is bigger than most US states, too.
It's also one of the most important provinces in Canada, alongside Ontario.
@@acerIOstream you're from Quebec ?
@@TheQuirkyGarage1999 oui

What about the 25 year rule?
Believe it or not- not applicable. All North American X5 are built in South Carolina
25 year rule applies to JDM or other non American markets. I'm from Canada and getting a US import vehicle into Canada is not a big deal
That applies mainly to vehicles which DO NOT meet the CMVSS/FMVSS108 standards.
Many Canadian-market cars actually meet US requirements, so it doesn’t apply to a lot of Canadian-market cars.
I thought Quebec has one of the worst kinds of car registration to hide accident and salvage titles. Be careful of the used cars from Quebec.
Not to mention significant rust from Quebec and Ontario road salt combined with high amounts moisture in the air.
that one WILL really Break major Wallet
Now! This is a only used vehicle to afford!
So, you didn't at all explain "how to LEGALLY import" all you did is review the car.
Very cool x5
