Towing Caravan (UK)
I have a 2016 auto 2.0d xdrive.
Thinking of possibly getting a used caravan but wondering if anyone on here has towed with an X1? Any comments/advice etc? Also would need to get a towbar fitted. Are there any other modifications needed towing with an automatic! |

I am in the process of retrofitting one myself. Sourced the towbar & ECU from junkyard & ordered the wiring loom from BMW. Click for partnumber & info here If you are towing heavy load they recommend to install a larger fan if your vehicle is not already equipped with that. In that case you need to install larger fan & Battery- Terminal See: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=17_0868 After installing you need to VO-code several things. Don't remember by heart. But atleast HeadUnit & BDC_body |

I use mine to tow a 2,200 lb pop up camper. Have never had an issue.
