Re: towing mirrors

I use Milenco grand aero on mine. Had the Milenco aeros which were good but then changed to the grand aeros as they are a bit bigger and give a better rear view. The Milenco mirrors always do well in tests. They are not vibration free, but I have yet to find any that are. :)

Re: Weekend wash and brush up

Looks good :thumbsup:
What polish/wax do you use? I use Topaz on my cars, easy to apply and polish off and doesn't leave white marks on any black plastic on the car.

I can see the picture, not sure why you can't :(

I don't think anything is supposed to be attached to the open nozzel shown, I think it is blanked off inside the jet unit. When you use the washers does anything come out of the open end?

Re: Switching headlights for driving in mainland Europe

On my F16 you can change the lights for European driving in the idrive under Settings/Lights. There is an option for European driving. Think the F15 should be the same. :thumbsup:
The clock doesn't change when you go to France as they are 1 hour ahead and the car doesn't recognise where it is.

What's this a picture of?

Looking at pictures of an X6 on Autotrader, I can't work out what part of the car this is from, or what it is. Any ideas?

Car sits lower on offside.

I have posted this in the general section as it might not be a specific problem to X6's. My 2016 X6 offside is about 2-3cm lower than the nearside both front and back. I noticed it as the gap from the wheel arch to the tyre is different on both sides. When the car is started there are no error messa...
