What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 BMW Alpina B7

Your Alpina B7 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your BMW, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Alpina B7 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2013 BMW Alpina B7 to maintain its performance power. Follow BMW's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get BMW Alpina B7 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 help repair all of your 2013 BMW Alpina B7 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your BMW Alpina B7 may need driveshaft attention if you feel clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. A lot depends on your driving style and climate. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your BMW Alpina B7.

How much does it cost to fix your 2013 BMW Alpina B7 drivetrain? Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
