BMW’s X5 is the manufacturer’s mid-sized SUV lineup that prioritizes off-road rugged performance over on-road driving dynamics. The lineup includes models such as the 3.0L Turbocharged inline-6, the 4.8 twin turbo, and the plug-in hybrid. Understanding and providing specific care for these models, particularly for repair and maintenance issues, requires not only expert technicians but also specialized tools and equipment. At EuroPro, we’re proud to be your premier auto repair facility, providing top-quality BMW services in Charleston and Myrtle Beach.

BMW X5 Malfunctions and Repair Solutions

Oil Leaks

Oil leaks are a common problem that affects all BMW generations and models. Due to age and constant heat, the rubber components in this luxury engine—valves, gaskets, and seals—become brittle and degrade. This causes leaks, which decrease the oil pressure and level in the vehicle. If left unchecked, the consequences of the leak include an overheating engine, friction-induced corrosion, and loud engine noise.

The oil leak could cause catastrophic engine damage, which is why repairing it swiftly is critical. First, we’ll replace the broken seals and gaskets, then perform leak tests to confirm the source of the leaks. After repairs, the vehicle’s oil level is restored with a high-quality full synthetic oil.

Air Suspension Failure

BMW X5 models with air suspension often experience suspension failure due to strut leaks. The air struts are made of rubber that degrades over time, forming cracks. These cracks then progress to leaks, causing the suspension to malfunction. Harsh riding, vehicle shagging, and compressor sound are the indicators of air suspension damage in the BMW X5.

The suspension strut replacement is the only repair solution for this issue. If the damage has progressed and affected the air compressor, it is also replaced with a new OEM-made unit. After suspension repairs, the wheel alignment of the BMW X5 model is restored to company standards, ensuring smooth driving on the roads of Charleston and Myrtle Beach.

Transmission Control Module Malfunction

The transmission control module in the BMW X5 may malfunction due to software issues, a low battery, or damaged sensors. This results in the transmission operation breaking down. Gear slipping, harsh shifting, and unusual sounds indicate transmission damage. If the condition worsens, your safety is compromised. Rather than leave it to chance, we’ll repair it swiftly and effectively!

We’ll use a BMW-specific diagnostic scanner to decode the error codes behind the malfunction in the X5 model. Using the scanning tool, we’ll first update the software and clear any bugs. Then, we’ll replace the sensors and inspect the batteries. If the module is physically damaged or water-damaged, we’ll happily replace it with a new component here at our Europro auto repair shop.
