How Does BMW X5 Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your BMW X5's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by BMW. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to BMW’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2016 BMW X5, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match BMW’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your BMW X5

It's a good idea to have your BMW X5 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2016 BMW X5: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your X5 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
