In this video we retrofit wireless charging to my BMW.
I install this on my 2015 BMW X5 xDrive50i.
Wireless charging is a feature people come to expect from newer cars. It's nice to have
options for older cards to bring them up to 2020 specifications.
The install is super simple.
Special thanks to CarQiWireless.com for sending the units to review.

Nice! I added and coded OE wireless charging on my G20. My only gripe is that it does not support fast charging and it tends to stop charging when phone temps rise.

If you option for a wireless charger It's in the center storage, below the armrest, it's a holder like thing where you need to place your phone in.

Thank you! I like the 2nd model, which voltage should I choose? 5V or 10V?

@ScottSellsSoCal 4 года назад

How are you enjoying the F15? I’m sort of looking for one as a 3rd vehicle and I love that body style. (I have a G05 as my daily)

@VehicularDIY 4 года назад

Oh it's really nice, the V8 changes the character of the car considerably. Would you get a 6 cylinder or 8 cylinder?

@ScottSellsSoCal 4 года назад

Vehicular DIY I WANT the 5.0, but my conscious says to stick with the proven 3.5. I’m scared of the stories.

Great video. Thank you!

Nice but at the cost of loosing a cup holder. Only if this charges well and fast would it be worth while imo

What would you recommend for a 2019 x5

@brandonculler8550 4 года назад

Does it stop charging once you reach full capacity? If not, an advantage of the 1st unit you can turn off charging & have a nice place to keep your phone. My x5 has wireless charging but i dont like storing the phone out of sight in the glove box... can’t tell you how many times I’ve left it in the car and had to go back to the car to get it.

@VehicularDIY 4 года назад

I believe it's up to the phone to stop taking a charge when wirelessly charging. I think the green LED light is a nice bonus as it helps indicate when it's done charging.

@babu3935 Год назад

Which company name and model

@donovanmiller8992 4 года назад

Can I ask you about code 2c31? It's an O2 sensor code do you think that can be caused by a leaking valve cover from a broken valve cover bolt? N54. Just dumped money on local mechanic total waste of time wondering what your opinion is? Thx!!!

@GabrielThaArchAngel 2 года назад

Is this available for a 2022 g05 model?

@erkjan4884 3 года назад

Does it drain the car battery if you leave the cigarette power adapter? I left a cigarette power adapter in my vehicle and after couple of days my battery was dead, not sure if that's caused it.

@VehicularDIY 3 года назад

No it doesn't the port should go dead after the car is shut off.

@takolchaiyawat2744 3 года назад

does it fit for x6 2013

@kingrogers7769 4 года назад

Hi I watch all your videos big fan I have a 2007 bmw 335i coupe and the park light and start light never go off and for some reason it’s like the car won’t go to sleep and I can’t figure it out do you have any clue what it could be I’ve seen forums about it but no results

@KrzysztofC-1 4 года назад

Lot's of "bmw wireless charger" on Aliexpress but sadly not much for E90

@supraboy82 4 года назад

right? i cant find one for teh oddment tray for e9x

@VehicularDIY 4 года назад

Yeah that might not be a bad video idea, trying to rig out a retrofit for the E90.

@supraboy82 4 года назад

@@VehicularDIY amazing! .. fyi maybe to add to that.. since you got the android head unit. i order a wireless carplay/android auto dongle. replaces the wired one that came from my head unit so then it can all be wireless. with charging.
