Tour and discussion about my ownership experience so far with my 2017 BMW X3 xDrive35i aka Hans. I’ve owned it for 10 months and 7,500 miles so far and really enjoy it. This is my ideal spec.

The power from the N55 Twin Power Turbo engine and handling is way more than what is necessary for this type of vehicle but I don’t mind!

Factory options:
Exterior color - Mineral White Metallic
Interior color - Mocha Nevada Leather w fine line walnut accent trim
xdrive35 - adaptive xenon, 3.0l turbo (300hp and 300 ft-lbs torque), panoramic sunroof, 16 speaker Harmon Kardon
Cold Weather Package - heated steering wheel, rear seats and headlight washers
Technology Package - 8.8 inch navigation, real time traffic and bmw apps, remote services through my bmw app, head-up display
xLine - 19 inch wheels, exterior trim package, door sill plates
Wireless phone charging , Apple CarPlay

    I have a 2017 xDrive 28i Xline. I absolutely love this car. 88k miles and the only problem thus far was needing a new battery here a few weeks ago. Loads of features, comfy ride, and sporty enough when needed. It will cruise all day long at 100mph + without issue.

    Very nice! I just picked up a pre LCI X3 with the N52 and I am enjoying it so far
  • I have the same cars, and yes the 330 is a little more special to me too.

    Been a year, how’s it going? Looking at the same model and year with 94k miles on it, clean carfax and maintenance history, two owners.

    An meteor rear diff replaced on a less than six year old vehicle? 🥹. Turbo coolant leak? 🥹. On JDMs these are issues past 10 years plus. Flirting w/ an X3 but It’s these types of things that make me wary.

    coded for apple carplay? I'm looking at the same model as a used purchase how did you get the apple carplay added?
  • @paakasaala
    Hi, is technology package required to get Apple car play? Could you please let me know how did you get it coded for Apple car play?
  • @EJR20
    1:48 How did you have Apple CarPlay coded? At a shop or how would one do it?
