Rear Diff

Post by shlobba » Sat Feb 01, 2014 2:55 pm

Help.......

I currently own a x5 e53 3.oi sport 2004 model i have broken the rear diff due to the tyres being different depths which is my fault. I was hoping that someone could advise whether i can get this reconditioned or whether i need to do the expensive route and get a whole new part?

If someone could advise where i could get this done or anyone who could help?

Cheers Rob

Hi and welcome.

Sorry to here about the probs with the rear diff. Depending on where about you are there may be a transmission service place or an independant BMW specialist.

I would probable look at the recon route due to the cost a new unit could be expensive.

Jason from Bw chiptune may be worrth a call as he should be able to point you in the right direction his conTct details are in the performance section.

I know a few of the others have more experience in  this area and should be along later.
