BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW 3 Series E90 (2006-2011)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Building your perfect BMW is more than just adding horsepower and stiff suspension. Your drivetrain needs attention in order to deliver power effectively. Most BMWs feature comfortable clutch discs, heavy flywheels, long shifter throws, and open differentials. The drivetrain transmits power to the wheels, but can also be a source of power loss when it is designed for comfort rather than performance. Everything on this page will help you improve your power delivery and driving experience by providing custom Limited Slip Differentials, Short Shift Conversions, Performance Clutch Discs, Lightweight Flywheels, and anything else your BMW needs to be the perfect driving experience.

A full overhaul of your shift setup. Short shift upgrade featuring an exclusive N54 DSSR, poly carrier bushing and associated components to transform your driving experience.

The double-adjustable short shifter kit features both shift lever height and throw adjustment to dial in the exact shifter feel you are looking for. Paired with the N54 DSSR this kit features upgraded replacements for your entire shift assembly with a whole new shift carrier, bushings, lever, and selector rod. Did we mention this will work with any factory-style press on shift knob?

If you're aiming to install a short throw shifter setup or completely rejuvenate your shifting assembly, this comprehensive kit is your perfect solution. It leaves no aspect untouched, upgrading all components simultaneously, eliminating the need for troubleshooting later to address any play in your shifter. We've all experienced the frustration of piecemealing upgrades, only to find ourselves cobbling together the rest of the kit in a longer, more tedious process. With this kit, you can get it right the first time and avoid any disappointment.

Adjustable between a conservative short throw to an ultra-short throw
Ultra crisp shifter feel - quicker, more precise shifts
More engaging driving experience

CNC machined chromoly steel shift lever assembly with 304ss shifter ball

Single piece 6061 construction, optimized cooling, provisions for temp sensor, and external cooler with removable air duct.

Built to last, made from a single piece of 6061 billet aluminum with a rugged and good-looking hard-coat anodizing the Turner diff cover can handle anything you throw at it. Not only is it an absolute masterpiece, but this billet diff cover checks all the boxes for features needed. Reinforced mounting ear for strength and stability. The mounting ear is unified with the one-piece billet cover and features added material for the highest durability possible. This diff cover is cool, literally, the entire construction was designed with optimized cooling in mind. External fins are strategically placed on the rear face, bottom, and between the mounting ears of the cover, serving as effective heat sinks for optimal heat dissipation. This ensures stable temperatures, promoting longevity for both the fluid and your differential. Additionally, the internal design ensures continuous oiling and lubrication of the ring gear, maintaining its stability and preventing fatigue by controlling heat more effectively. An internal baffle at the cover's corner helps maintain proper pressure and prevents cavitation.

All of the OEM features were retained along with the upgrades. The drain and fill plugs on the diff cover are upgraded to -6AN using the provided high-pressure fittings with replaceable o-rings. The drain and fill plugs can now be used for an external oil cooler allowing you to further expand the fluid capacity for optimized cooling and service intervals. To keep an eye on things from the driver seat is 1/8 NPT provision for temp sensors, this product from Turner has you covered at every turn.

Upgrading to our Turner Billet Differential cover gives you the strength you need to push your car to its limits without worrying about snapping a diff mount from clutch kicking or other shocks to the drivetrain. In addition to its enhanced strength, this differential cover includes numerous other upgrades and conveniences. These include improved cooling and lubrication for the ring gear, upgraded fill and drain plugs, and the option to expand an external oil cooler for extreme motorsport usage. Designed to complement both upgraded daily drivers and extensively modified track cars, it also offers a visually appealing design.

Key Benefits:

Reinforced mounting ear for strength and stability
16% Increased fluid capacity
External fins on the back side, bottom, and mounting ear on the casing for maximum cooling and consistent fluid temps
Removeable air duct to direct air across the cooling fins for even more temperature control
Optimized internal design to keep fluid consistently on the ring gear
Integrated breather to prevent cavitation by venting the appropriate amount of pressure being built up in the diff housing
-6AN ports to incorporate the use of a differential cooler - this increases capacity and lowers temps allowing for extended fluid change intervals
1/8 NPT fitting for the use of a temp sensor to monitor fluid temperature
Design:

Fits manual transmission Large Case 215mm differentials
Single piece 6061 Billet aluminum construction
T6 Black hard coat anodizing for superior corrosion resistance and aesthetics
Compatible with most differential coolers(-6AN) and temp sensors(1/8 NPT)
Designed to accommodate oversized rear sway bars
Retains OEM mounting features
Factory geometry bushing size for use with OEM and aftermarket poly bushings

Includes all the necessary components for a complete transmission service with Liqui Moly fluid Over the life of a vehicle, the transmission can often be overlooked when performing routine maintenance. If left unserviced, the automatic transmission fluid will break down, causing the valve body and filter to become contaminated with deposits and sludge. This will lead to poor shifting, slipping, and ultimately, transmission failure.

Red Line 70W/80W GL-4 MTL gear oil (SAE 5W30/10W30 engine oil viscosity) designed for use in BMW manual transmissions. Provides excellent protection of gears and synchronizers and its balanced slipperiness provides a perfect coefficient of friction, allowing easier shifting. The MTL can be used as a replacement for the factory MTF or MTF-LT2 used by BMW. Add MTL to older BMWs that have become tough to shift will restore shift smoothness. Many experts agree that this is best lubricant to use in BMW manual transmissions. Sold by the quart.

Red Line 75W90 is a full synthetic high-performance gear oil that is an excellent substitute for expensive factory fluid and an upgrade over off-the-shelf economy fluid. Red Line thoroughly evaluates the manufacturer's recommendations and only makes a fluid recommendation if their own product meets or exceeds the original specification. In many cases the Red Line synthetic will outperform the factory supplied fluids. We've been using Red Line Oil in our BMWs since we opened in 1994 and it remains our best selling BMW differential fluid. 75/90 is the weight most commonly used in BMW differentials since the 1960s, including the factory clutch-type limited-slip diffs (exceptions being M3/M5/M6 cars since 2001). We use 75W90 in nearly all BMW chassis and the custom differentials that we sell. It's great for the street where the polyol-ester base has natural lubricity and friction modifiers lead to smoother and quieter operation with lower operating temps than the factory fluid. We also use it in some track cars that don't already use the more aggressive 75/90NS fluid (without friction modifiers).

Recommended or exceeds specifications for API GL-5, GL-6, MT-1, MIL-L-2105E, SAE J2360, and Chrysler spec MS-9763. Matches the specifications for the factory BMW SAF-XO diff fluid (#07512293972).

Unlike other aftermarket mounts, the mounting plate and studs of our mounts have been Zinc-plated to prevent corrosion. Rogue Engineering Transmission Mounts are sold as a pair, and come with Grade 8 Zinc plated hardware. Rogue Engineering transmission mounts are designed with street comfort in mind while still reducing left and right movement of the transmission. By using a cylindrical shape instead of the factory hourglass like design and utilizing Neoprene rubber deflection can be significantly reduced, minimizing unwanted transmission movement while maintaining vibration dampening characteristics.

BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system relies on transfer case fluid to lubricate its internal gears and bearings, much like a differential. This fluid helps reduce friction and prevent premature wear from metal-on-metal contact. To maintain optimal performance and extend the lifespan of your transfer case, we recommend draining and refilling the fluid approximately every 60,000 miles.
