Common symptoms include vibrations felt through the car's body during acceleration or at higher motorway speeds. If these vibrations persist after balancing the wheels, the prop shaft or its centre bearing is frequently the cause.
On the E88 model, this is often caused by the ABS ring on the drive shaft corroding and expanding, which damages the sensor or triggers faulty signals. It is a very common issue that requires replacing the ring.
No, specifications vary depending on production date and gearbox type. Always select your car's exact make, model and engine to ensure you get the correct drive shaft for your specific vehicle.
On the BMW 1 Series 118 D E88, you can often replace just the ABS ring if the rest of the drive shaft remains in good condition. This provides a significantly more cost-effective repair than replacing the complete driveshaft.
The drivetrain mainly consists of the gearbox, the propeller shaft with its centre bearing and flexible coupling discs (guibo), the differential (final drive), and the two drive shafts that power the rear wheels.
