Dorman - OE Solutions Drive Shaft P/N:986-986
Dorman 986-895 rear drive shaft for the 2017-2021 BMW M240i carries drive torque to the rear axle. This two-piece steel assembly replaces a worn or damaged shaft.
A vibration that builds with speed or a clunk when you accelerate or shift can come from this shaft's U-joints. Worn rear-axle parts, out-of-balance tires or loose mounts can be behind the same signs, so find the cause before you buy.
This drive shaft is a direct-fit replacement for the 2017-2021 BMW M240i.
