Frequently Asked Questions about Drivetrain Parts for BMW 7 Series 740 i / Li
Does the same propeller shaft fit both the 740i and 740Li?
No, the propeller shaft usually differs in length between the standard model (i) and the long-wheelbase version (Li). It is therefore very important to check your car's wheelbase, model year and engine specifications when ordering.
What are the most common signs of a failing drive shaft on my BMW 740?
The most common symptoms are vibrations under acceleration, clicking noises when cornering (outer CV joint) or a clunking noise when lifting off the throttle. Vibrations at higher speeds can also indicate an unbalanced shaft.
How often should I inspect the CV boots on my BMW 7 Series 740 i / Li?
We recommend a visual inspection at every service or tyre change. A split CV boot quickly leads to CV joint failure due to dirt ingress and grease loss, which is significantly more expensive to repair.
Do you offer a guaranteed fit on BMW driveline parts?
Yes, we always provide a fitment guarantee when you select your vehicle by its exact make, model and engine variant. This ensures you receive the correct component for your specific BMW model.
Why does my BMW 740 i / Li vibrate at motorway speeds?
Vibrations at higher speeds are often caused by an unbalanced propeller shaft or a worn centre bearing. They can also stem from worn inner CV joints, but the prop shaft is a frequent source of issues on these models.
How quickly can I get my new drive shaft delivered?
We offer fast delivery across the EU for most in-stock parts for the BMW 7 Series 740 i / Li, dispatched promptly from our central warehouse.
