Rear Suspension
The rear suspension is the “intragal” multi-link design taken from the E38/E39 vehicles.
Several components AER made from aluminum to erduce the unsprung weight. The X5
with the M62TU engine uses the EHC (air spring) suspension system. The EHC functions
the same as the E39 Sport Wagon with only minor differences to the components and lay-
out of the system. The X5 with the M54 engine will use standard springs in the rear with the
EHC system as an option. The rear struts on the X5 are mounted to the body instead of
the sub-frame.
The rear axle sub-frame is mounted to the body through four bushings (larger than E38) for
increased load and comfort. The rear differential is mounted through three rubber bushings
two in the front and one hydromount in the rear. The wheel bearings are similar to the E39
but incorporate different seals - designed for off-road use.
New special tools are available for adjusting the rear suspension due to the limited space.

Power Distribution
The maintenance free 90 AH battery
in the X5 is mounted in the rear below
the spare tire and EHC compressor
unit. The battery box is formed of
molded plastic and the positioning of
the battery aids in weight distribution.
As with all BMW vehicles, the battery
is equipped with the BST on the pos-
itive battery cable.
Power distribution for the vehicle and
systems is through two fuse carriers
mounted in the right storage com-
partment in the rear and above the
glove box in the front.
The battery jump/charge point is
located in the engine compartment on
the left side of the fire wall.
