BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW 1 Series E82 (2008-2013)

ECS Tuning's Polyurethane Transmission Mounts are designed to address the vital role of transmission mounts in your vehicle's suspension. The factory mounts are notorious for failures that can result in over-revving, mis-shifts, and in extreme cases, potential chassis damage. Our polyurethane mounts provide a robust solution, engineered for both street and track applications, guaranteeing enhanced performance while eliminating concerns about torn mounts.

Polyurethane stands out with its exceptional toughness, durability, and impressive wear resistance compared to rubber. It also exhibits resistance to water, oil, and grease while retaining its original shape even when subjected to significant compression. By reducing deflection, polyurethane facilitates effective power transfer. While there may be a slight increase in NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness), the benefits far outweigh this minor compromise in ride comfort. With a polyurethane durometer of 70A, our street mounts are versatile, offering both daily driving comfort and track durability. For more track-oriented enthusiasts, we provide stiffer mounts with an 80A durometer rating.

For a hassle-free installation, we supply a comprehensive DIY guide. ECS Tuning ensures that you are fully supported from start to finish.

Enhance your car's performance with ECS Tuning's polyurethane transmission mounts, designed for both street and track applications. These mounts are engineered to withstand high torque and forced-induction scenarios, eliminating concerns about torn mounts and providing a more engaging driving experience. Although polyurethane may introduce some additional NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness), its exceptional durability, wear resistance, and resistance to water, oil, and grease make it the perfect choice for performance enthusiasts. ECS Tuning offers two durometer options to match your driving style, along with a comprehensive DIY installation guide, ensuring a complete solution for your transmission mount requirements.

Key Features:

• Minimized transmission movement, reducing the risk of mis-shifts and over-revs.
• Made from high-quality polyurethane bonded with 304 Stainless Steel.
• Enhanced driving experience for both street and track enthusiasts.
• Two durometer options available: 80A for race applications and 70A for daily driving (ES#2859359).
• Replaces weak OEM mounts.

Convert your open differential to a locked differential without the costly expense of an LSD replacement.

Get your car ready for aggressive track driving or drifting without purchasing or replacing your differential. The weld-in plates strengthen your diff and allow both wheels to engage simultaneously giving you a more predictable and capable track car.

An open differential allows the wheels to spin at different speeds and sends power to the wheel with the least amount of traction. This may be a good feature for your regular everyday driver but limits you on the track. The weld-in plates simulate a driving experience similar to a limited-slip differential allowing you to put power to both wheels in a low traction area or initiate drifts.

Features and benefits:

Added strength to your differential gears
Converts from open differential
Fabricated to fit in the spider gears for an easier weld and increased confidence
Made from 7 gauge mild steel, formed to fit

Ensure precise clutch installation with this specialized alignment tool, designed specifically for N54-equipped BMWs. While most aftermarket clutch kits include a generic alignment tool, many are intended for the N55, which is incompatible with the N54 due to differences in pilot bearing mounting and flywheel design.

This tool is engineered for both 6-bolt (01/2009+) and 8-bolt (-01/2009) N54 flywheels, allowing you to accurately center and align the clutch disc on the flywheel during pressure plate installation. Achieve a hassle-free and precise fit with this essential service tool.

Turner Motorsport Dual Shear Selector Rod (DSSR)

Enhance your N54-equipped 135i or 335i’s driving feel with the Turner Motorsport DSSR. Designed to give your shifter a much more precise and solid connection, this DSSR replaces the OEM selector rod, eliminating the play and deflection that come from single-shear designs. Pair it with a Turner short-shift kit for the ultimate shifting upgrade.

Think of the DSSR as a major upgrade from the single-contact OEM rod, much like riding a bike with two hands instead of one: you have stronger, more precise control over each gear change. With its dual-contact setup, the DSSR “sandwiches” both sides of the shifter and transmission, creating a direct link that feels solid, eliminating the vague and sloppy feel of the factory setup.

Key Benefits:

Enhanced Precision: Significantly reduces deflection and play, giving you a more connected feel while shifting Compatible with Factory & Aftermarket Shifters: Perfect for custom setups as well as stock configurations Durable Build: Fabricated from high-quality 303 stainless steel, offering rust resistance and longevity Complete Hardware Included: Comes with zinc-plated hardware for a secure installation Specifications:

Material: 303 stainless steel construction Compatibility: Replacement for part #25117524722 (E8X/E9X N54 models) Installation Design: Two-piece assembly with captive pins, designed for simple alignment and adjustability Fitment: Specially engineered to fit the tight N54 carrier without interference Installation Tips:

Remove your factory selector rod and take note of its orientation. Attach the DSSR to both the transmission selector joint and lower shift lever. Shift to 3rd or 5th gear for maximum access to the supplied hardware, then secure tightly.

Turner Motorsport Polyurethane Shifter Arm Bushing

Want more responsive and accurate shifts without sacrificing comfort? The Turner Motorsport Polyurethane Shifter Arm Bushing is the perfect enhancement to reduce unwanted movement and play in the shift arm assembly. Factory rubber bushings absorb vibrations for smoothness but compromise direct feedback and often wear out, leading to sloppy, imprecise shifting.

Crafted from high-performance polyurethane with a corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel sleeve, this bushing maintains stability without stretching or wearing out like rubber. Experience the tactile feel of more precise shifts, with minimal NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) added to your drive. A must-have for any driver looking to take control of their BMW's performance.

Key Features:

Precision Control: Firmer than factory rubber for a crisp, responsive shifter feel Long-Lasting Materials: Made with durable 70a polyurethane and a 304 stainless steel mounting sleeve Easy Installation: Direct replacement—no modifications needed OEM Compatibility: Replaces BMW part numbers 25111222015 and 25111222652 Specifications:

Material: High-quality 70a polyurethane and 304 stainless steel Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured with quality materials Durability: Improved lifespan over factory rubber bushings, reducing slop and enhancing gear engagement

This bushing is designed for use at the rear side of the shifter arm, providing support for the rear section connected to the body.

Key Features:

Ensures a perfect fit Instantly replaces worn or damaged OE shift lever bushings, restoring smooth manual transmission shifting Constructed from high-strength materials for long-lasting durability Manufactured to factory specifications for easy installation and optimal shifting performance Resistant to heat and ozone for extended reliability
