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.

Differential bushings are responsible for keeping the differential in solid alignment while dampening drivetrain vibration. While OE rubber bushings are fine when they are new from the factory, aged and worn out rubber bushings create a multitude of issues that can range from annoying to dangerous. As a factory bushing ages, it begins to harden and become brittle. When this happens the bushing will actually shrink and allow for movement at the differential mounting point. At this point, the differential is free to shift under load causing a noticeable clunking noise under acceleration and deceleration and massively increasing the stress on the driveshaft and axles. Manual transmissions suffer the worst from this as it can make shifting difficult since the differential will shift when the clutch is engaged and disengaged.

By replacing these bushings with full polyurethane, the movement is eliminated since the mounting point is supported by a much stiffer material that will not harden or shrink over time. This means less stress on the driveshaft and axles and greater longevity of supporting components. 

Powerflex street bushings are ideal for street driven vehicles and those that see occasional autocross or track time. Need bushings for a dedicated track car?

The drive shaft support bearing is essential for stabilizing the drive shaft and ensuring smooth, efficient power delivery. Over time, the rubber mount surrounding the bearing can degrade, leading to excessive drive shaft movement and noticeable vibrations.

If you notice a thudding or clunking noise during acceleration, especially coming from beneath the center console, a failed center support bearing is likely the cause. Bremmen Parts provides a reliable and affordable replacement solution, designed to restore your BMW’s performance and driving comfort.

Maintain peak performance and extend the life of your transmission with the Bremmen Parts DCT Transmission Filter. Engineered to block harmful contaminants, this premium filter protects vital components such as solenoids and fluid passages, ensuring smooth and reliable operation.

A clogged or worn transmission filter can restrict fluid flow, leading to delayed shifts, harsh gear engagements, or even severe transmission failure. Replacing the filter during routine fluid service or after major component replacements like the clutch pack, pump, or fluid pan is critical to preserving your transmission’s performance.

Choose Bremmen Parts for a durable, high-quality solution designed specifically for your BMW’s dual-clutch transmission.

A sloppy shifter is one of the common complaints of older BMWs. In addition to the shifter linkage the transmission mounts contribute to rough and clunky shifting. BMW transmission mounts are rubber and get softer over time. This allows the transmission to dance around which changes the geometry of the shift linkage and could make it harder to shift. These urethane transmission bushings are stiffer than the stock rubber mounts and won't let the transmission shift around as much. The round design also has more surface area than the stock mounts which helps spread the load. Because the urethane is stiffer, expect more vibration to make its way into the shift lever area. Engine motor mounts should also be considered as a cause for driveline vibration, transmission movement, and poor shifting. Consider replacing your motor mounts at the same time as your tranny mounts.

Constant exposure to the heat generated during transmission operation can cause this small plastic transmission adapter to degrade and warp over time. This failure often results in fluid leaks, a common issue in vehicles equipped with the ZF 6HP19 transmission.

If you're dealing with a transmission fluid leak and struggling to identify the source, this adapter is likely the culprit.

Restore your transmission's integrity with a high-quality replacement from Bremmen Parts, designed to provide a durable, leak-free solution for your vehicle.
