Car parts and drivetrain components for BMW 3 Serie 325 I E93. Always check the fit before ordering.
Vibrations from the propeller shaft are often felt throughout the entire bodyshell and are speed-dependent, whereas vibrations from an inner CV joint on the drive shaft typically occur under heavy acceleration and are felt more locally at the rear of the car.
This can vary. The length and mountings of the drive shafts can differ depending on the gearbox. Always select your vehicle's exact make, model and engine variant in our search tool to ensure you get the correct part for your specific configuration.
A clicking noise when cornering is a classic symptom of a worn outer CV joint. This is often caused by a split CV boot that has allowed dirt to enter and grease to escape.
On many BMW models, including the 3 Series E93, you can easily replace just the ABS ring if the old one has cracked or corroded, which is a far more economical solution than replacing the complete shaft.
A failing centre bearing typically produces a whining or grinding noise, along with vibrations felt through the centre console or floorpan, particularly at specific engine speeds or road speeds.
Our fitment guarantee means that when you select your vehicle by make, model and engine and purchase a recommended part, we guarantee it will fit your car. In the unlikely event that it does not fit, we will help you find the correct part at no extra cost.
