How we tow a BMW X5

Flatbed only: xDrive all-wheel drive means no wheels may be on the ground while it is towed.

  • Its drive goes to all four wheels in common variants, so towing with any wheels on the road can damage the transfer case or couplings.
  • Its gearbox is automatic, CVT or dual-clutch, which isn't lubricated properly when towed with the driven wheels turning.
