BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW E90 M3 S65 4.0L

Upgrade the shifting precision and feel of your BMW with Turner Motorsport Powerflex Shifter Carrier Street Bushings - Oval. Made of 90A urethane, these bushings replace the stock rubber ones to prevent sloppy shifting. The stiff urethane reduces play without adding vibration. Easy to install when the carrier is out of the car, these bushings ensure improved performance. Here are the key benefits:

• Enhances shifting precision and feel
• Prevents sloppy shifting caused by failed rubber bushings
• Made of 90A urethane for durability and stiffness
• Easy installation when carrier is removed

The stock center support bearing carrier is engineered to minimize noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) in the cabin by loosely securing the center bearing with a soft rubber bushing. However, this design allows the driveshaft to move off-center during launches and shifts, reducing throttle response and causing drivetrain oscillations. Over time, the rubber bushing can sag or dry rot, leading to misalignment of the driveshaft.

Prevent or fix this common problem with JXB Performance's Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Upgrade! This upgrade features a simple yet highly effective 2-piece design that makes installation and bushing replacement effortless. The stock carrier is cut away, and the JXB bushings securely "clamp" the driveshaft bearing in place, ensuring constant driveshaft alignment.

The Street bushing option from JXB is the most popular choice, offering a significant improvement over the stock design while keeping NVH levels minimal.

Note: Some light NVH, such as a soft hum, may occur at certain speeds. However, with a modified exhaust or open windows, it’s unlikely to be noticeable.

Installation is straightforward and doesn’t require removing the driveshaft. The 2-piece design clamps directly onto the OEM bearing, though removing the old carrier will require a cutting tool.

A common source of leaks, the selector shaft seal should be replaced whenever the shifter assembly is serviced to prevent fluid loss.
