  • Fogging or film on the windshield caused by HVAC coolant seepage
  • Reduced defrost performance during cold-weather driving
  • Temperature inconsistency in the BMW X5 HVAC system

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle is a 2007-2013 BMW X5 without Four Zone Climate Control before ordering.
