BMW F30 xDrive Axle Shaft Replacement (BMW F30, F31 328i, 330i, & More)

►Replacing a BMW F30 axle shaft can be a daunting task at first thought. If you're experiencing grinding or clicking when turning, there's a good chance your axle shaft is to blame, and you should replace it sooner rather than later. If your car is lowered on coilovers or lowering springs, this puts additional strain on these axle shafts. You can expect to need to replace them sooner than if your car was at stock ride height. The same goes for if you've modified your car to make more horsepower and torque. Expect to replace the axles more often than if your car was making stock power. This, however, is a good opportunity to take advantage of our Lifetime Replacement Guarantee. In today's video, Gareth Foley, our BMW Catalog Manager, shows you how to replace the driver's side axle shaft and seal on a 2013 F30 BMW 328i xDrive.
