Frequently Asked Questions about Drivetrain Parts for BMW 5 Gran Turismo 520 D
How do I know if the drive shaft on my BMW 520 D GT needs replacing?
The most common signs are clicking noises when cornering sharply or vibrations under acceleration. If a CV boot is split and grease has leaked out, there is a high risk that the drive shaft will need to be replaced.
Do all drive shafts from the 5 Series fit the Gran Turismo model?
No, the BMW 5 Gran Turismo uses a unique platform with specific dimensions. It is therefore essential to select your car's exact make, model and engine to find the right part for your 520 D.
What causes vibrations in my BMW 5 Gran Turismo 520 D during acceleration?
Vibrations are often caused by a worn propeller shaft centre bearing or internal wear in a drive shaft. These components are subjected to heavy loads in the substantial GT model.
Can I replace just the CV boot instead of the entire drive shaft?
Yes, if you catch the damage early before dirt and moisture have damaged the CV joint, replacing just the CV boot may be sufficient. If there are already knocking or clicking noises, you will usually need to replace the entire driveshaft or the joint itself.
