Frequently Asked Questions about Drivetrain for BMW X6 Xdrive 35 I E71 E72
What are the most common signs that the propeller shaft needs replacing on my BMW X6?
The most common symptoms are vibrations throughout the car during acceleration or at speeds between 80–120 km/h. You might also hear a thudding or knocking noise from underneath the vehicle when coming off the throttle or shifting gear.
Do your drive shafts fit both the BMW X6 E71 and the E72 hybrid model?
Yes, we have dedicated parts for both the E71 and E72. By selecting your car's make, model and engine variant, you ensure that you receive the exact version designed for your vehicle's specific drivetrain.
Why is it important to replace a damaged drive shaft boot immediately?
The CV boot protects the CV joint from dirt, water and road grit while retaining the lubricating grease. If it tears, the joint quickly deteriorates due to friction and contamination, leading to a much more expensive replacement of the entire drive shaft.
How does the fitment guarantee work when I buy parts for my BMW X6?
Our fitment guarantee means that if you select your specific car details when ordering and a supplied part unexpectedly fails to fit, we cover the return and exchange for the correct part at no extra cost to you.
Do your drive shaft kits include everything needed for installation?
Yes, our complete drive shafts are supplied fully assembled with CV joints, boots and grease. In most cases, the necessary fixing bolts or nuts are also included to make installation straightforward.
Can a worn prop shaft damage the transfer box on the xDrive system?
Yes, severe vibrations or imbalance from a worn propeller shaft can transmit directly into the transfer box and cause premature wear to bearings and seals, which can result in very costly repairs.
