The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your M2's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your BMW, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2017 BMW M2 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.

When to Get BMW M2 Drivetrain Repairs

We can help repair all of your 2017 BMW M2 drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your BMW M2 may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning.

That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your BMW M2 doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2017 BMW M2? Again, it depends!
