Get serviceable U-joints on the front of your drivetrain with this Dorman drive shaft, part number 936-310, a front 1-piece steel driveshaft assembly. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2010-2015 BMW X1, 2010-2012 BMW 328i xDrive and 2009-2012 BMW 335i xDrive, and is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
A front drive shaft carries power from the drivetrain to the front of the vehicle. The shafts originally fitted to specific vehicles use permanently staked universal joints, which makes them difficult to service. This Dorman OE Solutions drive shaft replaces that design so the U-joints can be serviced.
Vibration, clunking when shifting or accelerating, and squeaking from the U-joints can be signs that a front drive shaft needs attention. Other parts can cause these symptoms too, so diagnose the cause before you replace the shaft.
