How do I know if my BMW drivetrain is damaged?

How often should I come in for BMW X4 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 X4’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your X4’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can you reset your X4’s malfunction warning light at home?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your X4’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 serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my X4?

Is my X4’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your X4. 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.

2017 BMW X4 Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your X4's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your X4 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2017 BMW X4 to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to BMW's recommendations.

What Are BMW X4 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 go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2017 BMW X4 drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your X4 might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. 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. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your BMW X4 doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2017 BMW X4? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
