2013 BMW 328i Drivetrain Service

Your 328i’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your BMW, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2013 BMW 328i to maintain its performance power. Follow BMW's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are BMW 328i Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2013 BMW 328i drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your 328i might need driveshaft repair if you notice heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your BMW 328i drives.

  •  Can BMW drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are signs my BMW drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your BMW 328i, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need BMW 328i differential service? Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • Why is my 328i malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your 328i’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can my 328i malfunction warning light be reset at home? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your 328i’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my 328i? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your 328i, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.
  • Does my 328i drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the drivetrain system in your 328i includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your 328i forward.
