Great vid. I noticed your rear diff is leaking. Is it OK that your differential is leaking oil? Mine has oil ALL OVER IT - from top to bottom. Not sure how that's even possible.
this oil leak is common on the bmw, as long as it it not loosing excessively (you see fresh oil and drips on the ground where you park), you can drive it like it is. On my vehicle it lost less than 100-150ml in 4 years. I have done the oil change and after 4 years extracted it and it was not a major loss. Top it up from time to time and you will be ok.
my gearbox has on one side a leaver(metal L shape) connected to a cable that is used for the emergency Park release. Some newer automatic gearbox might not have it and there is a procedure you need to to from inside the car to engage Neutral. worst case ... if you don't have a mechanical release ... find out the procedure from inside the car and put the gearbox in N
No symptoms. I just did not like how it looked like. Also have been testing some remapping tools and this being a part that will be stressed more I decided to change it.
@@BestCarMods roger that! Mine has a stage 1 on it so I will check this guibo condition out when I do the diff oil replacement. Seen a few videos of the guibo being cracked even at low milage.
@@ir655 my car had/has a kick when you go from engine braking (less than 1200 rpm in normal mode) to acceleration in Manual sport. It is due to the play in the transmission, and to reduce it i have changed the diff main bushing and the guibo... it has improved it but it is still present. I know that I am crazy to want it to be crazy smooth, because you feel something like this even on a manual car, but we can only try ... and maybe I also enjoy changing parts on my car ...
After changing both flex disc the car is still vibrating at 90 km/h + ! I dont have any clue why the car vibrates ! Allready change all wishbones in front all lemforder ! Change front rotors and pads all bosch ! Still nothing ! The car stii vibrate even with other 4 wheels ! Any ideea ? Thank you ! Also new engine and trans mount !
Lets set the context .. so tell me engine, type of geabox, sedan or estate, can you try and see if vibration is dependent on the speed you travel or on the engine RPM ?
@@BestCarMods 3.0d automatic gearbox sedan ! Doesnt matter the rpm the car is lightly shaking after 70 -80 km/h till 130-140 ! It feel more when i drive arround 110 and keep a constant speed ! Seems to vibrate more when i have low rpm and if kick down it dosent feel anymore !
I need to fiind another 4 wheels who fit f10 and prove them ! Btw thanks for the tip for TRW brake pads, i will buy them too ! Also i have new front rotors bosch like yours...but with bosch pads !

Awesome thanks! @@BestCarMods
What did you press on? How do i rotate the drive shaft by hand to reach the other bolts on the flex disc?

Do you have to replace the bolts and nuts with new ones?
yes
@@BestCarMods what if you dont?
@@socommaster if you torque them at the bmw value, bolts might snap.
@@BestCarMods my bmw dealership installed the guibos but used the same bolts and nuts, is that okay?
@@socommaster theoretically not. practically yes ... bolts are really resilient they will be ok
Reason for changing this? Vibrations? Mine has 174k km on the clock.
