BMW Drivetrain Parts

Differential Fluid Extraction Adapter is an essential tool for efficiently draining and refilling differential fluid, ensuring your vehicle's differential system remains in optimal condition. Designed to work with most extraction pumps, this adapter simplifies maintenance tasks, making it easier to service your differential without the mess or hassle of traditional methods.

• Efficient fluid extraction: Allows for quick and clean draining of differential fluid.
• Versatile compatibility: Works with most extraction pumps, offering flexibility for various vehicle makes and models.
• Hassle-free maintenance: Simplifies the process of refilling and draining differential fluid, reducing time and effort.
• Durable construction: Built from high-quality materials to withstand frequent use and harsh conditions.
• Easy installation: Designed for a secure fit and easy attachment to extraction pumps.

This Differential Fluid Extraction Adapter is a must-have for any vehicle owner looking to maintain the longevity and performance of their differential system.

Stock mounts are made from soft rubber and are sometimes filled with fluid to give a car the most comfortable ride possible. The soft rubber and fluid helps to reduce the total amount of vibration, noise, and harshness (NVH) that is transferred into the cabin. The problem with this is driveline slop. The stock mounts allow a lot of excess movement and increases the amount of time it takes to transfer power to the wheels.

In order to address this issue, performance mounts can be substituted to reduce the amount of slop and transfer power to the wheel quicker. Two options for this are polyurethane mounts and solid mounts.

Solid mounts are great for an immediate transfer of power but allow for a ton of noise and vibration to be felt and heard in the cabin of the vehicle. This is great for the track where there aren't any issues with excess harshness, but as a daily driver, this can become an annoying pain in the neck.

The best middle ground is Polyurethane. Polyurethane is much stiffer than rubber and gives you the much stiffer feel you may be looking for. This allows for the increase in responsiveness, but isn't so extreme that it transfers all of the sound and vibrations into the cabin. This makes it much more comfortable for daily use while still reinforcing your driveline.

YCW Engineering introduces their 100% dry carbon fiber driveshafts for BMW, setting a new standard in performance drivetrain solutions. Constructed entirely of dry carbon fiber with forged 6061 aluminum ends, these driveshafts are significantly lighter than the OEM steel, weighing in at only 11 lbs. This reduction in weight allows for smoother power transfer to the rear differential, enhancing the driving experience.

With over 15 years of experience in the performance driveline field, YCW Engineering has quickly emerged as a leading manufacturer. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction is evident in every product, from carbon driveshafts to coilovers and sport axles.

• Lightweight Construction: Made from 100% dry carbon fiber, reducing weight to just 11 lbs.
• Enhanced Power Transfer: Smoother power transfer to the rear differential for improved driving feel.
• Precision Engineering: Balanced to 12,000 RPM and machined to within 0.02mm of OEM tolerances.
• High Torque Capacity: Stress tested to withstand over 4000 lb-ft of torque.
• Quality Assurance: Crafted with over 15 years of performance driveline experience.

Upgrade your BMW with YCW Engineering's dry carbon fiber driveshafts for superior performance and reliability.

One of the most satisfying upgrades you can make to your BMW is to its factory shifter mechanism. By reducing the shifter's throw, you can give your manual transmission BMW a sportier, more precise feel. However, with so many different "short shift kits" out there, how can you be sure you're making the right decision? With the introduction of the Rogue Engineering OCTANE short shift kit, the choice is now crystal clear!

Rogue Engineering refuses to compromise with "lever substitution" as a method of short shift kit development. Rather than using actual test vehicles for their products, some companies actually dig through OEM factory parts diagrams to determine which factory levers can be substituted with others. This "lever substitution" method of introducing product is unacceptable. These shift kits have been developed and perfected through years of experience in proven short shifter technology, by Co-Founder, Ben Liaw. As longtime BMW enthusiasts know, Ben was single-handedly responsible for introducing and developing the idea of affordable, BMW factory-like, short shift kits for late model BMWs (BL/SS for those young enough to remember!). 

Rogue Engineering idea of a short shift kit is not substituting levers in place of factory ones just because "they fit". Throughout the 80s until recently, BMW was notorious for using only a few specific shifter levers for their manual transmission vehicles. For other companies, making just a few "replacement levers" and offering them in place of those factory part numbers was an easy way of calling it a short shift kit. Unfortunately, for those companies, BMW started using many different part numbers making it more difficult to just "swap in a lever".

Rogue Engineering only develops it's short shift kit with test vehicles in their facility, testing numerous prototypes, offering others to test it before settling on its final design. They feel that this old school, real world testing is the best way when modifying OEM ergonomic, sensory-based controls.

• 30% shorter shifts
• Counterbalanced for great shift feel
• Stainless steel & aluminum construction
• Rubber isolated for reduced NVH
• Maintains stock shift feel with uprated stock-type bushings

The Dinan short shifter provides shorter shift throws with a crisper and more precise feel than a stock shifter. Instead of retrofitting a stock BMW lever, with all of its deficiencies, Dinan has engineered this billet aluminum shifting system. Special features engineered into this unit include a two piece fully isolated stick assembly, exclusive integrated and dampened pivot cup with self lubricating pivot ball, counter balanced to reduce effort and exclusive polymer "Iglide" T-500 lower pivot bushings that are impervious to contamination. Featuring an adjustable pivot, which allows this shifter to fit both standard and M Series applications. All of this combined with a simple straightforward installation provides a professional level shifter. Provides a 30% throw reduction in E82 128i/135i, E9X 325i/328i/330i/335i, and E60 530i/545i/550i.

For over 35 years, Dinan has been America's premier tuning company, pioneering advancements in BMW modification while retaining a focus on balanced performance that preserves the original character and driving feel that a BMW offers. When you install a Dinan part on your car, know that it's not only carefully developed and tested, but that Dinan stands behind it with a four year, 50,000-mile warranty.
