There has to be a setting to default to access height when parking. If not maybe if enough people complain they can add it as an update. With 22’s has to be tough on sand/snow etc. Best leave the X7 where most comfortable. In mall/supermarket/soccer practice drop off parking lots. All jokes aside. Without the correct footwear for the job I wouldn’t even think about doing anything crazy with it

Those of you who have it... is it worth it? I don't have it but thinking about purchasing it on my next service visit and my wife says it's a gimmick. Any reason to pursue or is she right?

In the two weeks I've had mine it's been sitting in a kitchen drawer .... it's considerably larger to carry around and there isn't a function that I need that I can't do from the regular key. For me it's a gimmick albeit a cool one but I'd rather have had two regular keys.

I have it, not worth it at all, it barely functions, never used as it's huge and sucks to carry around.

I've picked up my car 1 week ago. Display key + 1 regular key + 1 metal key. In my country app doesn't work, as there no communication with car. So, here is some benefits for me:
1. I can check car is locked or not. I don't use comfort entry/exit feature, as I don't fully believe into it. Sometimes with my Toyota I have went back to recheck doors. 2. I can lower the car from a distance for kids easy entry 3. I can see remaining gas mileage, prior to driving |

Gotcha. I enjoy the feature in our Range Rover SC which automatically lowers the vehicle into "Access Mode" every time you put it in park/shutdown. Would be nice if you could code the X7 to do the same but in the same vein it is not nearly as tall as the RRSC.

I researched those electric running boards pretty hard before I picked up my X7. They are almost plug-n-play and appear to be built pretty well based on the info I could find. If my X7 did not come with OEM running boards, I would have strongly considered these..

Parking while in Comfort Mode:
Parking while in Sport Mode:
If you always lower your X7 to the lowest position after parking, select Sport mode before reaching your garage to lower it one notch to the next to the lowest position. Then after you park you only have one more notch to lower it. |
