All About 2014 BMW X6 Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your X6's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your BMW, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your X6 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2014 BMW X6 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 X6 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 take care of most 2014 BMW X6 drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your BMW could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice 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 pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." 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 X6 doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2014 BMW X6 drivetrain repair is expensive. Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
