Car parts and drivetrain components for BMW X5 Xdrive 50 I E70. Always check the fit before ordering.
The most common symptoms are clicking noises when cornering sharply, which indicates a worn outer CV joint, as well as vibrations under acceleration that often stem from wear in the inner joint.
No, propeller shafts differ depending on the engine type, gearbox and model year. It is therefore vital to select your exact make, model and engine to find the correct shaft for your Xdrive 50 I.
Our fitment guarantee means that if you use our vehicle selector to choose your exact make, model and engine, and order the recommended part, we guarantee it will fit your car correctly.
Vibrations during acceleration are frequently caused by an unbalanced propeller shaft, a worn centre bearing, or play in the drive shaft inner CV joints, which are placed under high load under throttle.
It depends on the extent of the damage. In many cases you can replace just the CV joint if the shaft itself is undamaged, but if there is extensive wear or damaged splines, a complete drive shaft provides a safer and more durable long-term repair.
We aim to dispatch all in-stock parts as swiftly as possible so you can get your car back on the road without delay.
