Vibrations at higher speeds are often caused by an unbalanced propeller shaft or a worn centre bearing. They can also stem from a worn inner CV joint that can no longer properly centre power transmission under load.
On the BMW 5 Serie 525 TD E34, it is often possible to replace only the inner CV joint if the rest of the shaft remains in good condition. We offer individual inner CV joints to make your repair more cost-effective.
We recommend a visual inspection of CV boots, universal joints, and prop shaft mountings at every oil service or at least once a year. Early detection of a split boot can save you the cost of a complete drive shaft replacement.
