BMW 7 Serie 733 I E23

The most common symptoms are vibrations through the body shell under acceleration, particularly at higher speeds. Unlike outer joints, clicking noises when turning are rarely heard; the issue presents primarily as drivetrain imbalance.

Our fitment guarantee means that when you select your vehicle's make, model and engine variant and order the recommended part, we guarantee that it fits. In the unlikely event that it does not fit, we will help you find the correct part at no extra charge.

The centre bearing keeps the propeller shaft correctly aligned and dampens vibrations. A worn bearing can lead to heavy vibrations that, over time, cause damage to both the gearbox and differential on your BMW 7 Series.

On the BMW 7 Series 733 I E23, it is often possible to replace only the inner CV joint if the shaft itself is undamaged. We supply both individual joints and complete drive shafts depending on your needs.

We offer fast delivery across Europe on most in-stock parts for the BMW E23. If you place your order early on a weekday, your parts are normally dispatched the same day from our central warehouse.

No highly specialised tools are required, but you will need quality socket sets, a torque wrench, and ideally a vehicle lift or sturdy axle stands, as the job is carried out underneath the car and requires precision when fitting the guibo disc and centre bearing.
