Product Information

Supports the center of the driveshaft underneath your BMW, a common replacement item on high-mileage vehicles

The driveshaft center support houses the driveshaft center support bearing. Over time the bearing itself can wear out causing a "whining" noise. Additionally, the rubber support within the bracket can also wear out allowing for additional movement within the driveshaft.

Drive Shaft Center Support

A drive shaft center support is a bearing assembly that provides support to the drive shaft in vehicles with a two-piece or longer drive shaft configuration. This support, usually located in the middle of the drive shaft, stabilizes it, reduces vibrations, and helps maintain alignment, ensuring smooth power transfer from the transmission to the rear wheels. Replacing a failing drive shaft center support promptly is crucial to maintaining vehicle stability, drivetrain alignment, and overall smoothness during acceleration and driving.

Drive Shaft Center Support Failure Symptoms
  • Vibration and Shaking: A worn or damaged center support can cause noticeable vibrations or shaking, especially when accelerating or driving at higher speeds
  • Clunking or Banging Noises: A failing center support bearing may cause clunking, banging, or thudding noises under the vehicle, often due to increased drive shaft movement or metal-on-metal contact

also need Butyl Tape
The bearing is fine, but left the car with a humming noise at 50-60MPH. This is apparently a known issue that had a TSB on it and the fix is a piece of butyl tape (BMW-83225A1B482). The tape should be added when you change the bearing, or else you may find yourself taking it apart twice.

Great Product
I have had no issues with this hanger bearing so far. It certainly helped to get some vibration out of my driveshaft, although I had other issues contributing to vibration as well. Love the lifetime warranty too.

Great replacement, took the shake out of my driveshaft. 2004 325xi 115,000 miles on it, support was shot.
