The ability to ride so well on 21” wheels and run flat tyres compared to my M235i on passive suspension, far better on the X3 than I imagined,
Will I swap the Bridgestone RFT for Pirelli Pzero’s when they are worn out , time will tell but an option |

Not sure is this has been noted but I found an interesting change to the stop/start mechanism. In my old 35d you pull up in traffic, engine cuts out (depending on circumstances) and you take foot off brake and engine kicks in.
On this new 2018 model it seems to detect car in front moving away and starts the engine for your even though you have foot on the big pedal. Nice :-) Also, I used to ALWAYS go to manual shift mode in old car because I didn't like the gear changes. This new one is soooooo much better and gear shifts I am actually letting it do the work (unless I'm pumping it!). Oh, and Apple Car Play is way cool. |

Lot's of things can be surprising without reading the manual first

There is what feels like felt on the seat belt buckle on the side that is closest to the center console. Maybe its to prevent the buckle from scratching the side of the console?

This only works for me if I have Automatic cruise control enabled. Otherwise nothing happens and the engine remains off

if it still won't work after trying a few more times, then you might want to get it checked out by your dealer. Hope this helps. |

I first saw this felt on my 2014 Grand Cherokee. I believe it's there to prevent a rattle.

We're in Central Florida and tonight I really appreciated having a heated steering wheel! When I bought the X3 I thought I was paying for a button I would never use :-)

So, I noticed in the 2019 X3, the truck curtain is actually in a rail that prevents you from pulling the drape upward, scratching and scuffing the interior sides with the horizontal catch bar. I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally pulled it high and I scratch the sides, and even worse - slightly dented and scratched up one of the rear speaker grills...

Can be a pain in some traffic conditions but ideal at traffic lights with long wait sequences. |
