Center Support Bearing for BMW 6 Series F12 (2012+)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

A worn-out center support bearing can lead to some annoying side-effects. The driveshaft on BMWs is broken up into 2 sections. The center support bearing is where the 2 sections meet. It consists of a metal bearing in the middle that is surrounded by vibration-absorbing rubber. As the vehicle ages the rubber becomes weak and rips away from the bearing. The result is a vibration and a bad thumping or knocking sound.

The stock center support bearing carrier is designed to reduce NVH to the cabin by loosely holding the center bearing with a flimsy rubber bushing. During launches and shifts, the driveshaft is allowed to travel off-center, decreasing throttle response and causing oscillations through the drivetrain. As they age, the carrier rubber sags and dry rots, ruining the driveshaft alignment. Fix or prevent this common issue with JXB Performance's Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Upgrade! JXB utilizes a simple but extremely effective 2-piece design which allows you to install this upgrade and replace bushings with ease. The stock center support carrier is simply cut away, allowing the JXB bushings to "clamp" down on the driveshaft bearing and hold the driveshaft securely in place, maintaining driveshaft alignment at all times. Two bushing options are available for this kit, Street and Track, both of which are many times better than the stock bushings: The street bushings absorb most of the NVH from the drivetrain. Some light NVH is possible at some speeds in the form of a soft hum. (With a modified exhaust or windows down, you’ll probably never hear it) The track bushings are for those who want no-compromise drivetrain performance. These may create a substantial amount of cabin noise. Not sure which is for you? Try them both, they’re interchangeable! Installation does not require the removal of the driveshaft. The 2-part design clamps around the OEM bearing. The old carrier must be removed, so a cutting tool is required. Looking for replacement or additional bushings? See T#4799658 for replacement street bushings and T#4799659 for replacement track bushings.

Center drive shaft support including the bearing pressed into rubber mount. Center support bearings help to add some support to the driveshaft in a BMW. Because it is designed to be a two piece system, bracing needs to be added to the center to keep your driveshaftin line and tight. If you are noticing excessive vibration or gear noise in your vehicle, it may be time to replace the support bearing. From Febi comes a factory part to replace your worn bearing. Exactly like what your vehicle came from the factory with, it's easy to eliminate those nasty vibrations with just some simple hand tools and know how. Because this is such a common problem among BMWs, there is a wealth of information available online to help walk you through replacement. Before ordering, check your driveshaft flex disc, or guibo, to determine if that also needs to be replaced. After all, since you have it all apart, you might as well replace all the parts you have access to.

The stock center support bearing carrier utilizes an extremely thin layer of rubber to secure the driveshaft, allowing for minimal movement to effectively insulate the cabin from noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). However, this design is less effective at maintaining proper bearing alignment under heavy loads. Over time, it allows the bearing to gradually sag, disrupting the driveshaft alignment and introducing play in the driveline during gear shifts and throttle application. The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) rubber bushing has a tendency to sag, become brittle, and eventually deteriorate, resulting in dry rot and cracking. Even in well-maintained vehicles, the stock bushing can develop cracks in as little as 5-10 years. When the bushing loses its integrity, it can lead to pronounced vibrations, clunking noises, and increased stress on the bearing. Adding to the challenge, the stock carrier is permanently molded onto the center support bearing, making replacement a difficult task that typically necessitates specialized tools.
