Unveiled in 2017, the BMW 5 Series Touring G31 established itself as the ultimate European executive estate, offering a massive 570-litre cargo bay, standard automatic self-levelling rear air suspension and a 100 kg weight reduction on the CLAR platform. Built for demanding family duties and heavy towing, long-term dependability relies on disciplined BMW 5 Series maintenance that pairs running gear servicing with digital diagnostics.
Engine options featuring modular B47/B57 diesels and B48/B58 petrols pair with the eight-speed ZF 8-speed automatic gearbox, offering exceptional mechanical stamina. The standard rear air suspension maintains a level ride height under heavy payloads, but rubber air bellows must be inspected for fatigue cracks on higher-mileage load luggers.
Additional checks should cover the electric tailgate mechanism, towbar electrics, wide tyres for even tread wear and the 12V auxiliary battery. Sourced with a verified service history, the G31 represents the pinnacle of modern executive estate motoring.
