Frequently asked questions about Drivetrain parts for BMW 8 Series 840 i E31
What are the most common signs of a failing propeller shaft on a BMW 840i?
The most common symptoms are vibrations felt through the vehicle body during acceleration or at specific speeds, as well as clunking noises when changing gear or accelerating.
Will any BMW 8 Series propeller shaft fit my 840i E31?
No, propeller shafts vary depending on the engine variant and whether the car has a manual or automatic gearbox. Always select your car's exact make, model and engine to find the right part.
How does the fitment guarantee work at CVJoint24?
Our fitment guarantee means that when you select your vehicle's make, model and engine variant and we confirm the part matches, we guarantee it will fit your car perfectly.
Do I need to replace the centre bearing at the same time as the propeller shaft?
Yes, this is strongly recommended. A worn centre bearing is frequently the cause of vibrations, and because removing the prop shaft is a major job, it makes good financial sense to replace both at the same time.
What is a guibo (propshaft coupling) and why does it wear out on the BMW 840i?
The guibo is a flexible rubber disc coupling that dampens vibrations in the drivetrain. On a powerful car like the 840i, it is subjected to high torque, causing the rubber to crack and perish over time.
