BMW 5 Touring 540 I Xdrive

The most common sign is a clicking noise from the front suspension when making sharp turns at low speed. If the noise disappears when driving straight ahead, it is almost certainly a worn outer CV joint.

Vibrations under load are often caused by an imbalance or wear in the propeller shaft or its centre bearing. Because the 540i xDrive produces high power, these components are subjected to significant forces that can cause wear over time.

Yes, xDrive models feature a distinct configuration with front drive shafts as well as specific prop shafts tailored to the transfer box. It is therefore vital to select your car's exact make, model and engine variant to ensure you find the correct part.

Our CV joint kits are supplied complete with the joint itself, a vehicle-specific CV boot, high-grade grease, clamps and the necessary mounting bolts to ensure a professional replacement.

When you select your vehicle's make, model and engine, we match the part to your car's specific chassis details. If the part unexpectedly fails to fit despite selecting the correct vehicle specification, we take full responsibility and assist you in getting the right component.

We aim for fast dispatch on most of our stocked items. If you place your order early on a working day, your prop shaft is normally dispatched the same day for the quickest possible delivery.
