Product Information

Commonly referred to as a guibo, connects the drive shaft to the transmission

This rubber flex disc sits in between the drive shaft and the output shaft of the transmission. It helps absorb vibration while allowing slight flex. This particular component is known to tear or crack as it ages which will cause excessive play within the drive shaft. This will cause excessive noise and vibration. We recommend periodically inspecting this component for cracks or wear.

Febi repackages an OEM SGF Guibo. Normally SGF parts are only available in Genuine BMW. ordering this joint from Febi is like ordering a Genuine unit.

For manual and automatic transmission vehicles for the listed applications.

Drive Shaft Flex Joint

A drive shaft flex joint kit also known as a guibo or flex disc consists of a flexible rubber disc that connects sections of the drive shaft to absorb vibrations and torque shock. It helps reduce stress on the drive shaft and other drivetrain components by allowing a slight amount of flexibility, which improves smoothness in power delivery from the transmission to the wheels.

Drive Shaft Flex Joint Failure Symptoms
  • Vibrations While Accelerating: A worn or damaged flex joint often leads to increased vibrations during acceleration, as it can no longer absorb torque properly
  • Clunking or Thudding Noises: Loose or deteriorated flex joint material can cause clunking or thudding sounds, especially when shifting gears or accelerating, due to metal components coming into direct contact
  • Uneven or Jerky Acceleration: A failing flex joint disrupts smooth power transfer, causing jerky or uneven acceleration as it loses its ability to flex properly
