Car parts and drivetrain components for BMW 3 Serie 323 CI E46. Always check the fit before ordering.
The most common signs are clicking noises when cornering or vibrations under acceleration. If the CV boot is split and grease has leaked out, there is a high risk that the CV joint is damaged and the complete drive shaft needs inspecting.
Vibrations through the body shell during acceleration are often caused by imbalance or wear in the propeller shaft or its centre bearing. They can also stem from worn inner CV joints on the drive shafts.
Yes, on the BMW E46 it is often possible to replace just the ABS ring if the original has cracked or corroded, which is a considerably more affordable option than replacing the entire drive shaft.
