Installation informationThese installation instructions describe the towing hitch BMW X5 (E53) ECE, level 2 and higher. For level 1 vehicles the towing hitch retrofit kit 71 60 0 017 290 must also be installed.
Deburr holes and treat them with anti-corrosive coatings as set out in BMW directives to protect them from corrosion.
Ensure that the cables and/or lines are not kinked or damaged as you install them in the car. The costs thereby incurred will not be reimbursed by BMW AG.
Additional cables/lines that you install must be secured with cable ties.
If the specified PIN chambers are occupied, bridges, double crimps or twin-lead terminals must be used.
All pictures show LHD cars; proceed accordingly on RHD cars.
Ordering instructionsIn the case of 4.6 iS vehicles you will also need to order two shield plates and fit them above the rear silencers. (See EPC for part number and documentation.)
The cross traverse behind the bumper must be removed; it is no longer required.
Legal requirementsA type approval exists that complies with EC Directive 94/20/EC Appendix VII with EC approval symbol e13 00-0552.
If you comply with these regulations and notes in these installation instructions, no special acceptance test pursuant to § 19 of the German Road Traffic Licensing Directive and no special entry in the vehicle registration document is necessary.
Information for the customerThe section on “Statutory regulations pursuant to EC Directive 94/20/EG” at the end of the Installation Instructions is to be printed out and handed to the customer.

3. Installing the removable towing hitch
Working from the boot, tighten two screws M10 x 30 (h) and washers 10.5 x 25 x 3 (m) by hand on each side, right and left, through the side members in position I.
In the interest of safety, these screws and washers MUST be fitted!
Align the trailer tow hitch. Screw in the following order (torque as per ISTA):
1 Tighten the nuts (n) with rolled-on washer (4 each on right and left, see diagram F 53 0005 WW) to attach the towing hitch to the rear panel.
2 Tighten the screws (h and k) in the side member (see diagram B).
3 Tighten the screws (h) in the boot.
Affix the nose weight label (o) to the tailboard between the profile strips.
Before fitting the bumper, refit the right and left exhaust and the heat shields.
Fit the bumper.
The Torx screws you previously removed (1) are now screwed on to the towing hitch. Torque: 55 Nm.
Screw the lashing strap (r) using screw M8 x 20 (g) in the luggage compartment to the left-hand side member.
Stick the sticker for operating the ball bar on the underside of the luggage compartment floor.

3. Installing the removable towing hitch
If the ball head is required, it is essential to observe the following instructions to mount it on the towing hitch:
- Operating instructions for ball head
- Instructions on label for operating the ball head
If the ball head is not required, place it in the ball head holder as shown in the diagram.
Lock the lashing strap and check that the ball bar is firmly in position.
The ball head must be firmly in place to ensure that it cannot accidentally come loose (e.g. in the event of sharp braking)!0 53 1078 Z

4. Installing the additional wiring harness
Remove the blind stopper (1).
Insert the control cable from the additional wiring harness (a) through the hole (2) and insert the rubber grommet (3) on the additional wiring harness (a) into the hole (2).
The rubber grommet (3) must sit securely in the hole (2) to prevent the ingress of water. If necessary,
seal with silicone.
Route the control cable from the additional wiring harness (a) along the standard wiring harness to the 12-pin plug casing X393s (4) on the right at the back.
Connect the 12-pin socket casing (A1) of the additional wiring harness (a) to the 12-pin plug casing X393s (4).
Secure the additional wiring harness (a) to the vehicle’s own control cable using cable ties (z).
Place the socket (v) with the intermediate section (5) on the trailer plug A2 and attach to the towing hitch’s socket retaining plate with the fillister head screws (x) in position (III).
Secure the additional wiring harness (a) to the cross tube with cable ties (y).

7. Statutory regulations pursuant to EC Directive 94/20/EC
Appendix VII
Regulations for the type licence of a vehicle for the optional installation of mechanical connection devices (trailer tow hitches)
1. General regulations
1.1The vehicle manufacturer shall determine which types and classes of connection devices may be installed on the vehicle type, and shall specify values D, V 1, S or U (if applicable), which refer to the construction of the vehicle type in combination with the planned type of connection device. Code values D, V, S or U for the connection devices approved under this Directive must be equal or greater than the ones that have been specified for the appropriate vehicle type.
1.2.The connecting device must be mounted onto the vehicle type in accordance with the installation instructions specified by the vehicle manufacturer in agreement with the manufacturer of the connecting device and the technical service. The vehicle manufacturer shall define the permitted points for securing the connection devices to the vehicle type and, if necessary, the mountings, installation plates, etc. that must be mounted on this specific vehicle type.
1.3Only automatic hitches are allowed to be used for hitching up trailers with a total mass of more than 3.5 tonnes to motor vehicles; these automatic hitches must permit an automatic hitching procedure.
1.4When connecting devices of class B, D, E and H are fitted to trailers, it is always necessary to assume a value of 32 tonnes for the total mass T of the towing vehicle in order to calculate the D value. If the D value of the connecting device for T = 32 tonnes is not sufficient, the resultant restriction relating to the mass T of the towing vehicle and the mass of the vehicle combination (towing vehicle and trailer) must be specified in the approval sheet for the trailer.
1) The V value must only be specified for vehicles with a technical gross weight in excess of 3.5 tonnes.

7. Statutory regulations pursuant to EC Directive 94/20/EC
2. Special regulations
2.1 Fitting coupling balls and towing brackets (tow ball with coupling device)
2.1.1When coupling balls and towing brackets are fitted to a vehicle type of class M1, class M2 below 3.5 tonnes and class N1, the clearance and height dimensions shown in the figure 1 and 2 must be maintained. This requirement does not apply to off-road vehicles in the sense of Appendix II of Directive 92/53/EEC. Unspecified details are to be selected to suit the appropriate purpose. The dimensions and angles must be checked using suitable measuring instruments.
2.1.2The vehicle manufacturer must supply installation instructions for coupling balls and towing brackets. These installation instructions must specify whether the attachment area requires reinforcing.
2.1.3It must also be possible to couple and uncouple coupling heads when the longitudinal axis of the coupling head in relation to the centre line of the coupling ball and towing bracket: a) is turned horizontally through b = 60° to the right or left (see Figure 2)
b) is rotated vertically through a = 10° upwards or downwards (see Figure 1)
c) is rotated axially through 10° to the right or left.
2.1.4The mounted coupling ball must not obscure the rear registration plate or the space provided for the rear registration plate; otherwise, a ball that can be removed without requiring special tools must be used.
2.2 Installing tow ball couplings
2.2.1Class B coupling heads are permitted to be used with trailers of a gross mass up to 3.5 tonnes. Tow ball couplings are to be installed in such a way that the coupling point of the trailer when the trailer is horizontal and with a permitted axle load is 430 mm ± 35 mm above the horizontal wheel contact level (see Figure 3). The horizontal position for caravans and trailers is the position in which the floor or the loading bed is horizontal. In the case of trailers without such a reference plane (e.g. boat trailers and the like), the manufacturer must specify a suitable reference line for defining the horizontal position. The required height only applies to trailers that are to be coupled to the vehicles listed in 2.1.1.
2.2.2It must be possible to operate coupling heads safely within the clearance of the coupling ball as shown in figures 1 and 2.
