  • In this video I'll show you how to easily remove the front differential on a BMW F10 and also how to remove the front drive shafts in case your axles snapped. In the end, we'll do a hardware x-delete on this 535d and remove the entire front drive train to save weight, money and make the car more reliable :)

    I was looking to change fluid for my car, 2014 535dx… and was looking at your video, and then realized you got an N57 as well! 👏

    What an amazing video with details, I have a xdrive and I lowered mine and the front axel broke I replaced it and it broke again. So I'm going to do this exact procedure to make it only rwd

      aliexpress. there's a video on it on the channel. made a custom layout and had some leds go out already. the internals are kinda flimsy but haven't found anything more substantial. absolute love it though!

    You finally did x drive content! To bad its not n55. When removing the axels, diff oil would have started to pour out. Also you could have gotten a used diff if he wanted to save his x drive

    • @BONDGarage

      the moment I touch an xdrive I'm getting rid of it 😅
      maybe I'll put it back in if he wants to. it's really not that hard. but yea they must have lost all oil when removing the axles before. must have been dry ever since. as for N55, after changing my motor mounts I can say that it'll be the same for all 6 cylinders, gas or diesel. the periphery is pretty similar on the bottom end.

      @BONDGarage x drive is nice when getting off the line in a race, and works for me in Ohio with the snow. And they are very much the same underneath when I did my oil pan gasket. I had to remove alot of the same things just to get the axels out of the way

      I feel you. the benefits are undeniable but it's also more complex. would love to have the on-the-fly switchability from the M5/M3 because sometimes I just want to pull a quick drift and other times I'd like it to hook a little better :)@@Sonin66

    Das Differential ist ja am getriebe dran, wenn man es ausbaut verliert da des Getriebe kein Öl? Oder irgendwas?

      der flansch bleibt ja drin und damit der Dichtring auch. haben im Nachgang den flansch mit nem Kabelbinder fixiert und das VTG mittels xdelete stillgelegt. bisher kein Verlust aber werde nochmal genauer hinschauen wenn der wagen wieder vorbei kommt.

      radnabe sollte nicht rausfallen. wenn man ganz auf Nummer sicher gehen will könnte man das achsegelenk zerlegen und wieder anschrauben. die RWD Modelle haben da aber auch nix.

    My front diff is making a horrible noise. The fluid is like silver, shop said it would be 6k for that and the drive shaft. Couldn't I just get X-Delete and make it 100% RWD? The shop told me no but I'm thinking it's because they want me to spend the money replacing it.

    • @BONDGarage
      @BONDGarage  5 місяців тому +1

      Not quite. Think about it. x-delete will cut power to the front diff from the mid diff. So that clutch is open. so far so good. but when driving, your front wheels still turn (now passive like a rwd car but still turn) and that will still keep your front diff turning. So instead of the mid diff actively powering th front diff and wheels, now the wheels power the front diff but it doesn't do anything. just dead weight. So either you replace the diff or get x-delete and remove the front diff from the car.

    • @name7150
      @name7150 5 місяців тому

      Thank you! So if I remove front diff, axles and driveshaft and x-delete. Then it will be just rwd with no problems? Have you had any problems driving that way?
