2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 Drivetrain Service

Your ActiveHybrid 5 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your ActiveHybrid 5 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following BMW's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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 visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your ActiveHybrid 5 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. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your BMW ActiveHybrid 5 doesn’t drive like it used to.

  •  Can BMW drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • How do I know if my BMW drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your BMW ActiveHybrid 5? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.
  • When should I come in for BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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.
  • What causes a ActiveHybrid 5’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? If your ActiveHybrid 5 has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.
  • Can you clear the ActiveHybrid 5 check engine light on your own? While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your ActiveHybrid 5's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your ActiveHybrid 5.

  • Does my ActiveHybrid 5 drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your ActiveHybrid 5. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
