2020 BMW X5 M50i front differential replacement Part 1 

When a man is determined, a man makes a way! Mad respect brotha nothing better than being self sufficient!

You're a stud in my books. My wife has the same EXACT car (White 2020 X5 M50i with 70K miles) and we just found out that the front diff has the same issue. Fortunately, I bought the extended warranty so they are covering it....but I'm with you...they should have absolutely covered this under MFR warranty whether you had purchased the extended warranty or not. This is a crazy operation to do yourself...congrats.

You're the man for helping her out like this. Glad we got to see another video even if it wasn't the Humvees!

Thanks man for sharing you are right zero info and the dealer refused to help and this should be on the Grantee Mine M50I X7 and I had only 63000 KM

Lot work bmw x5 is good but crazy when oil leaks

thank you for the video. now if it happened to me ill do it at home

Right on, good to see you’re still around. I hope they get you the part soon and the reinstall goes smooth.

Nice video bro, lucky I watched your video. I’m going to need something to support the engine wow. Thanks! I got a 2015 but it looks the same.😊

Yes we remember Tara😅 Your a good man for fixing her car, just so you know. Mad respect for the effort. 👍 What road blocks are you up against on the humvee other than available time?

Glad I came across this video just started changing the diff on mine x6m Thanks for your help with this video

Man look at all that dust on the humvee

I have a 2021 bmw r18 classic. Love my bike lol

by the way i love watching your content...keep it up and GO Vols!!

Harry, You're Alive!

you should consider a pro differential shop to press in bearings and set up gear backlash for you...only thing worse than doing a job like that is doing it twice...lol. Dont ask me how I know!

Im going threw the same thing.....im doing the work myself...2014 x3 msport

You da man!

awesomeness!

How did the front diff go out?

Heyyyyyy Marine man where you been, did you finish the house, how's things been going for you🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Huh...looks just like the bottom end of a Ducati crankcase...makes me wonder if there's not enough preload on those Ball bearings? Yup, I said preload. Duc's will grenade the bottom end bearings if you don't have .0025"-.0035" compression(preload) on the bearings from the case itself. I'm wondering if BMW hasn't learned this lesson about Ball Bearings yet, and built it a bit loose thinking they don't want too much axial load on them, when, in fact, they need to be loaded to live??? ...pardon my 2cents rambling on bout that 🙃

Mine is now noisey around left turns at speed (wheelbearings are fine) only has 67k miles. Utterly ridiculous.

I hope the Germans don’t build a spaceship for space travel …. We’re doomed 😂…. Sadly but it’s a $7k job bro 😆 😊
