Hey just wanted to say thank you this video helped me alot today. Ended up not having to take of the caliper when I did it, but this video was a HUGE help and saved me alota monies!

[@johnkinney7458]

I own an F30 and love these videos but even if I didn't I think I would watch them. I did follow your guide for the carbon fiber vinyl wrap interior. It turned out great. Not sure how you only have 42k subs.

[@TommyLGarage]

I did this job on my previous car. Getting the axle out was a PItA. I wish I had that oversized fork! Nicely done

[@CookiesUnleashed]

My mechanic warned me how expensive the output shaft was. I avoided every slight dent in the road like the plague afterwards. Glad to know they really know their stuff.

[@adamproperdouble2094]

Amazing . Perfect speed . Just what i like every step explained with great attention to detail . I have slight play up and down and was hoping to just change these tripple bearing and end by the whell.

[@JiggyfrmdaX]

Very helpful ... couldn’t ask for a better teacher

[@vitalmakhdum]

This guy should have so many more followers

[@guyvelo1]

Hey Brian I have a x1 35i with the same "new style" allen bolt CV joint and all I had to do is remove the two ABS sensors,the link to sway bar nuts and take off the four sway bar bolts. that's it. The half shaft comes out towards the front with the wheels turned max. On the passenger side, because the shaft is so long, you need to jack up the suspension so the half shaft can be taken out horizontal, that way it just clears. Keep up the awesome vids.

[@wilsonakinocho8363]

Great video👍🏿

[@emadayyash9760]

Great job Thank you very much

[@Polo08816]

Can't wait for the rear wheel hub bearing or axle shaft DIY. Probably more involved than the front axle.

[@rickhoffman7656]

Just broke my rear passenger axle!

[@filmstudiomalkiewicz]

Hi. Its great video, but you can only replace the boot (BMW original) and put new grease after cleaning everything. In Poland this inner cv joint tripods are also available for 35 USD. I’ve made it in my F36 🙈

[@mancaveproductions00]

Great info...I just did my brakes on my f30 328i, thanks to your video.

[@FahimMD]

Looking forward to this. I had my axle replaced and rotors. Is it weird that everyone I reverse my bmw in a 90 degree angle I hear a weird noise because of it?

[@twinb5840]

Would you do a Front and rear sway bar upgrade one day ?

[@tarekyalmaz6914]

perfect amazing

[@guyvelo1]

One more thing: since the suspension is still there and in the way you can't use the mallet technique to pop the CV back in. So I held the ball end with both hands and hit the inner part with it once it was properly started in the differential. The rubber booths keep the two ends apart and there is about an inch of play. That gives enough impact to pop the snap ring in place : )

[@GS-km6sy]

Where did you get those blue front bumper reflectors matching the car color.

[@steviestevereno]

Don’t forget that if you remove the inner side of lower control arm for this that when put it back on you tighten it up about 90 percent while in the air and when you set the car down finish tightening that up 100 percent

[@200saluma]

Need the whole output shaft bad !!! Not trying to pay for an oem one though !!!

[@christiancode3565]

can you just replace the bearings for the F10 and put a new boot?

[@gatofelix211]

Random question ? 🤔 can you drive an ( xdrive - f32 ) without cv axles ? Or axles period

[@Kreeky621]

Hi can you tell me the best way to remove the rear output shaft please

[@vo_van_inc]

sorry how much Nm need for 'cooler' bolt in the end, didnt fint info in the links !?

[@leomunoz2422]

i broke that plastic piece and thought i could replace it . i dont see it on real oem listed as a part now im thinking it wasnt supposed to be broken if just changing cv boots, is there anyway to fix it?

[@Nguyen2fold]

How hard is front hub bearing on an f30 xdrive.

[@el.alejandro2696]

Where can I get a rear wheel bearing hub for BMW f30 335xi?

[@lifewithjusto7777]

where did you get part whats link to part ?

[@John-qc1zv]

Do you need to replace the shaft seal ?

[@mustakid51]

Another quick tip if you dont have anyone to hit the brakes to torque axle nut then stick a screw driver through rotor vents and it will get wedged with the caliper and stay in place so you can torque the axle down i did this on my e46 too many times 😪

[@4oh4n0tf0und]

Another trick is to put the lug nuts/bolts back on, then place a prybar between two of them. Place a jack stand level with the prybar. It will keep the rotor from spinning

[@GIXXER404]

Can you send me the link to buy the axle driver side f30 2013

[@Soda-stream]

who to buy brake cover like this in this video the yellow? thanks

[@christianmedina9908]

How to do the rear one ?

[@jose510ss87]

Great video what is the torque specs for the center nut

[@angel29558]

210 nm plus 90 degrees of rotAtion

[@ilovslavo]

I had broken right side outer Boot . It will be OK if I replace new Outer CV Joint only instead of whole new Front Axel ( with outer and inner CV Joint)?

[@DrMelInvests]

Same here. I can't find a single video of to just do the boot on these cars... Maybe it's to easy?

[@sully6913]

So what's the "very high torque rating" the collar nut?

[@TK-gd9td]

Chris S 210 Nm + 90 deg

[@balkarngill6628]

Can u do a cv boot replacement? Outer boot specifically

[@DrMelInvests]

Help! I'm looking for the same video.. maybe it's so easy that no one wants to record it??

[@jasondonohue6678]

I have done the driveshaft replacement But I cannot fit the strut back in for the life of me Any help

[@FrenchValleyAirport]

Look at the axle boot on the output shaft, pull on the axle, you will see the joint separate inside the boot, now try pushing it back in, notice it will only mesh completely in certain positions. Rotate your brake disc, push again, and keep rotating till you can fully seat the axle. Now do that while trying to put your strut back in in a position where the cv joint cant be pushed in completely, hope that helps.

[@primaryenginesinc]

17MM ALLEN LETS DO THIS!

[@SevenLionz]

push me to the edge, all your links are dead. btw do u sell m sport steering wheel with buttons nd stuff? thx

[@priteshpatel6267]

My axle keeps popping off after an accident. Its my 3rd front right axle. I barely drive it 10-15kms and it pops right out. Anyone has suggestions?

[@GingerHamster19]

Something else is probably broke or bent

[@bigshooTer39]

Broken axle support. It’s common. It’s prob cracked.

[@sttm1283]

seems like a bitch to have an Xdrive if something fails :D but im sure its handy in other situations :D
