At the 2024 CCTV 315 Party, the “disturbing BMW drive shaft” was exposed.

There are frequent strange noises coming from the bottom of the car. Why does a new car make such noises? This kind of noise makes many BMW owners have trouble sleeping and eating, and also makes BMW and 4S stores on pins and needles.

In a video provided by a BMW owner, you can clearly hear the sharp friction and metal impact sounds coming from the transmission system when the car is switching between R and D gears.

After interviewing many BMW 530Li owners, the reporter also visited many BMW 4S stores across the country. Regarding the problem of abnormal noise in the drive shaft of the BMW 530Li model, the staff of the BMW 4S store did not shy away from it, and the maintenance staff also frankly told the reporter, You can replace the drive shaft, but they can’t return or replace the car.

During the investigation, the reporter learned that replacing the drive shaft with a new one cannot completely solve the problem of abnormal noise in the vehicle’s drive shaft.

However, the BMW manufacturer and 4S stores in various places have not reduced the number of car sales, and the models with the problem are still vigorously promoted and sold.

It is learned that the official guide price of BMW 530Li starts at 485,900 RMB, equipped with an 8-speed automatic manual gearbox.
