In Reply to: Are M5 and 535 driveshafts interchangeable? posted by Ethan Turner on February 22, 2002 at 02:15:03:


They are the same for M5 M6 M535 (UK) 525 520 518 635 628 etc etc. i.e. any variant.

Confirmed by BMW following an enquiry by myself.
(Exchange price quoted at £180 each)
I have fitted 635 driveshafts to my M635 no problem. In fact most of the suspension stuff is the same except for the obvious springs dampers and thickness of the anti roll bar.

All bushes, trailing arms, control arms, thrust arms, idler arms etc are the same.

E12 is not though


Regards

Ian
