The 35D is one of BMW's best kept secrets. We've had our deleted and tuned for a little over a year and i'm ready for another one. Wife loves driving it too much.
Hi I’m looking at a 2012 x5d l/mid gen… where can you get it deleted? I found a place in pa famous for diesel tuning, but even they won’t come out and admit that they can help me with this. Frustrating.
@@straightsixracing I love my RAM but it just can’t compare to the BMW on the road. Both vehicles being inline 6 diesels are where the similarities end haha. The X5 handles surprisingly well for how heavy it is. The awd is also great to have now that we’ve had rain and snow. Now I just have to make the X5 actually sound like a diesel
Even if you are not doing the delete now, get the kit now, the EPA is working overtime to stop these companies from selling them. My son bought his kit months before we actually did the install.
i know this video is a year old but if you have a kid on the way go ahead and keep him on the passenger side rear, its the safest seat in the vehicle for a carseat and he/she would be only a year old so likely still in the seat.
Nice thanks for sharing bro. I'm actually looking to get one today. The "school bus" part was funny. Now that you mentioned it it'll be a the selling point for me. I have a toddler and loves buses and trucks. Also congratulations on the baby. My second is on the way and also need more headroom. Also how you liking it now?? God bless bro.
I recognize that area! I’m from the area too! Sleepy Hallow! My wife has an x5 didn’t know that they made a diesel! I got a 2019 ram and it’s super torqued up 🧰 🛠️ ⛽️
How is the diesel smell? We just had our's deleted, but the smell of diesel is insane. I may need to take it back to the guys that did it and see what is wrong with it. I didn't expect it to be so smelly.
Ive had my 2012 X5 35D for some months now, and I LOVE IT! Its in grey and have been thinking about getting some new wheels. Do you think black wheel would look good? I also wanna delete and tune as well!
I’m normally not a huge fan of black wheels, but black wheels on grey cars looks great. I like my wheels a lot, happy to have found a car in perfect spec for me :)
heard these trucks are nothing but problems. My cousin bought is 2015 new and got rid of it a couple years ago . Why do so many ppl say this thing is not worth buying. Sounds good with the delete thats for sure. There is a 2011 x35d for sale in my area for under 9k with 200k on the engine, but it has electronically reduced power on the engine right something to do with issue with the engine filter the seller stated. will delete kit fix this issue?
2015 gasoline x5 has timing chain issues. The diesels of this gen nce deleted are solid. Trans and engine last forever. Not sure about the engine filter issue... maybe DEF filter?? Not sure what emissions are on here, bought mine deleted and its been perfect
Hey, I just found a similar one and I’m wondering if I could buy it cuz I live in MN. And I have never had a diesel car before so I don’t know if it could handle the cold. I have also heard about how the carbon pulling up in these cars. Please share you thought! Much appreciated!❤
Nice video and I really like the wheels. I have 2013 Navy Blue but my question is that legal to delete the Particulate Filter or tune in North East like NY and NJ? Let me know pls. so I can do the same thing.
Hey I have a 35 d and would love to do this where can I find a good mechanic to do it and we have inspections in jersey would it pass inspection and what does it cost
You can get anything up to around 900 bhp from one of these engines with a few supporting mods. Tuners love them over here in Europe. Torque is insane too.
@@EvilX5Mmine tuned, dpf egt delete, makes 380hp and no issues just keep up with mantaince, airbag suspension can be an issue and do turbo seals. mines got 325,000ks (203,000 ish miles)
That car has only a turbo n57 hasn't it? I ask because in Europe the 35d is the twin turbo, how is it doing now? Any problems with the crankshaft bearings? Thx
@@straightsixracing Thanks for the fas reply man, I'm about to buy an 325d e90 lci with the n57 (it isn't exactly your motor) but the info is perfect, the one I want has 260k kms (160k miles), and I'm scared of buying it and needing an engine rebuild, the car cames from Germany so that is a good thing (Highway miles, good for a diesel)
I am getting my bmw x5 too, but if you deleted the emission system, where is still pass the smog check? I am in California and I don’t know if I should delete it or not with my 35D
How much did it take you to get those deleted? I just got my 35D yesterday, and I already have check engine light related with the emission system… can’t wait to get it deleted
My 2012 35d is stock 4 now…. Planning full delete. My most fav driver. I’ve got 2 Rams with Cummins…. Love that BMW diesel. Son has total built 09 335i certified rocket ship 570 ponies 190+mph.. ( I hate it 😂) I’ve got 40 mpg cruising @58 mph. ❤️ my beast 👍
I’m new into cars right now and I love my x5 I think I bought a hidden gem, but what does it mean to delete and tune a car. I’m curious because I want to do it to mine 😊
Delete refers to removing the federally required devices on a diesel car such as the def tank, egr valve, and particulate filter. Then mapping or tuning refers to chipping the car afterwards and netting it to run the way it was intended to before Dufus (Biden). The epa stuff traps in carbon soot, robs the engine of power, and causes it to last less miles on the road.
My wife is giving birth tonight - between her being pregnant and work being the busiest I’ve been all year I haven’t had any extra time to make videos. I’d like to try once winter is over (it was also -10 this week lol) but life is life and I have no idea when that’ll be unfortunately

How to delete it yourself?
i just got one yesterday 170k miles needs a bit of work, 5000$ canadian!
@@caspersiren9338 how
I just bought a X5 35d as well. Mine is stock and I can’t wait to delete and tune. I haven’t driven my Ram since. I feel guilty. Subscribed
🙌🏻 how do you like it so far? I’m assuming since you haven’t driven your ram you LOVE it!

@@Bmwguy2011 same question here thanks

Paint the plastic fenders gloss black. I did white on my white one and it makes all of the difference

We ended up doing this! Made more sense because my wife is 5ft tall and I drive the most!

Just bought this exact vehicle. I am so excited!!!
I love love love having a tailgate on my SUV. Best car I’ve owned
I have my car for over 12 years now 3.0 lt diesel bmwx5 e70 Swiss army knife of cars love it! Enjoy!!!
How many miles do you have on it?
Very good video. How many miles on it now? I’m looking at the same year, but worried how many miles I a get out of it.
I recognize that area! I’m from the area too! Sleepy Hallow! My wife has an x5 didn’t know that they made a diesel! I got a 2019 ram and it’s super torqued up 🧰 🛠️ ⛽️
I had a 2003 Ram deleted and purchased a 2017 Ram no deleted. The 2017 has half the power and 15 mpg.🙁
Going to look at one next week with 49k miles for $18k looks similar to yours
Well done congrats man
Thank you 😃
After it being a couple months how r u liking it now have been contemplating on getting one for a couple of weeks now
Hands down best car I’ve ever owned. Delete this car and it’s the Swiss Army knife of vehicles. It does it all.
I just did my android head unit with reverse camera... It makes such a difference. 😊
Where did you get the parts?

Your EGR is still connected brother. I can see it at 2:15 still connected. Get that out of there! :)
Did you ever upgrade the head unit I would like to do it on my 2012 and if you did could you please tell me which one you purchased
Awesome find. I got a blue one with the 3rd row option.
What MPGs are you getting with the delete?
Anyone
How much does it cost to maintain? I mean, if something breaks down, it costs double the price of other cars
It hasn’t broken down in 25k miles / 2 years of ownership!!
Hey I’d love if you made another vid with the sound of this x5, no offence but I rlly wished you let us hear the cabin sound more
Just uploaded a rev battle… new video coming soon for the x5 35d!

Very Nice 👍💯 Congrats!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love this generation of X5. You should look into getting the EGR deleted.
It’s deleted in the tune!
I'm glad to see your enjoying the X5. @ 2:15 it looks like someone left it on.
So they leave it in place but disable the electronics via tune. As far as I know it’s just as effective without having to do anything mechanical!
@@straightsixracing 👍🏾 I get it. I wish this Gen had more exterior mods this truck is a blast to drive. I plan to work on my handling next
I agree. Some x5m stuff but im not too interested in it. For now ill be happy with some interior mods to modernize it a little bit
Might I ask you a question? Can the last gen x5 be deleted as easily or as well as the second gen.? What about tuning of second vs third gen.?
I’m not sure, if it’s m57 motor it should be similar
How is it 1 year in? Great Video!

It started up and drove no problem in -12 weather. I have had no issues with this car. Highly recommend
Whats been deleted though? you're saying delete, what delete?? EGR ?
Nice video and I really like the wheels. I have 2013 Navy Blue but my question is that legal to delete the Particulate Filter or tune in North East like NY and NJ? Let me know pls. so I can do the same thing.
If your state requires any type of smog or emissions testing, you're gonna have to put them back on
Hey I have a 35 d and would love to do this where can I find a good mechanic to do it and we have inspections in jersey would it pass inspection and what does it cost
Did you get the trans tune? It works better with the tune and deletes
Not yet but I want to!
I have a black 35d as well and have been looking for those wheels for a minute. What kind of wheels are those? And spec?
can u make a vid of you upgradinging the head unit?
Damn ma guy 🤑
🎉🎉
hows the glow plugs react in a really cold weather? does this diesel engines has any negative that you can share if you don’t mind?
Its been good no complaints. Check out my short starting it in negative weather
Diesel smells all over
But can those make power? Debating between going all out and getting an X5M, 50i or 35D.

Where did you get your Fender Flares?
Any websites that sells deletes and tunes. Need help just got an 35D
Does it pass Emi deleted?
What size of wheels/fitment are you running on that?
Got one of these in July 2022, freakin love it. The diesel engine sounds so good even stock, and it handles almost like a big sport sedan
Just got one a few weeks ago also 2011, need to delete and tune mine but I just installed the android headunit
How do you like it?
@@straightsixracing I just installed it last night, already downloaded Spotify and saved my playlist in my car so it's already worth the money 💪

I love my car, i just cant find a way to achieve what you did, i d love to get in touch and pick heads, i have had mine for 8 years and i love it
did you ever find a place to do it?
@@impetuosity3381 no unfortunately
Kassel in pa
What are these wheels called?
I am getting my bmw x5 too, but if you deleted the emission system, where is still pass the smog check? I am in California and I don’t know if I should delete it or not with my 35D
Definitely won't pass a snog test with a delete
You won’t pass more than likely. By me I don’t believe they test diesels so I’ve never looked into it.
