2014 BMW M235i Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your M235i's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your M235i’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 BMW M235i, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following BMW's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

We can help repair all of your 2014 BMW M235i drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your BMW M235i may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2014 BMW M235i? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

  •  Can BMW drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • How do I know if my BMW drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your BMW M235i? 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 M235i differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my M235i? If your M235i 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 reset your M235i’s malfunction warning light at home? 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 M235i'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 M235i.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my M235i? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your M235i, 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.
  • Is my M235i’s transmission part of the drivetrain? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your M235i. 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.
