    Default E34 towing figures

    So, for anyone else who needs to know, the e34 towing figures (circa year 1990 owners manual info) are:-

    520 + 524td - unbraked = 650kg (1433 lb)
    520 + 524td - braked = 1400kg (3086 lb)


    525,530,535 - unbraked = 700kg (1543 lb)
    525 only - braked = 1500kg (3307 lb)
    530,535 - braked = 1600kg (3527 lb)

    I have an oem sticker in the boot that reads 1500kg for a 9/92 build euro spec 530iT with the westphalia touring. How come you have 1600kg?



    what's the rumpus?
