So my driveshaft boot has failed so going to need replaced or rebuilt. Anyone recommend anyone that can supply a replacement for return of this old one. Also should I bite the bullet and do both? I don’t have any knocking noises it’s only from visual I knew it’s gone. Only recently happened as not long since mot and I’m sure this would of failed. It also looks fresh. thanks mark

I can’t complain for the age and mileage, poor car has covered more miles in last five months that it has in last five years. Still 16yrs and coming up for 120k it’s pretty good.

Hi folks, Got AA parts cover on my car and need some work done, so new driveshaft and rose joints. Anyone recommend a decent garage in Edinburgh? Thanks Mark

Ha ha, I think it’s Scottish salty roads to be honest..

Many thanks, i am getting a vibration around 55mph through to about 70 hoping this is causing it. Also on getting the car in the air one of the driveshafts has failed plus my other bearings are not looking too hot.. Here we go again more expense thats why we love them...

Is it likely to be item 2 in this diagram that’s the culprit?

Think I will swap the ball joints, I’ve got a kidder do this might be the cause. Will get it all aligned after swapping

Got this squeak just started anyone any ideas what it might be? Was reading it could be rear ball joint saw this but looks dodgy, top video shows potential solution bottom shows what mines doing at the moment. IMG_8739.MP4

I’m sorry I’m away from home and my son has the car so I don’t know to be honest. from what I’m told the old Bluetooth/wireless function that was working no longer works. This is on apple I’m afraid. Will try and find out how it’s behaving and let you know.

Hi, Yes i did i tried all of these others. What i needed to do was take a picture of the QR code then send this to Andream support who then generated a 6 digit pin to authorise the unit. After this its all working again. Thanks Mark

Excellent, happy days good to hear that... It does run nice, i havent spent much time behind the wheel of late due to work but when i do its lovely apart from this vibration i have and also my issue with my Andream after updating it..

Read mine today run the test and all seems to be in tolerance. Thankyou sir, yes sorry i had written into my post that i sussed it was the microfilter and managed to reset it with the trip switch reset from a video i found so all good. Cheers

Thanks for the help Edd, it was the newer one that David had sent me that i tried and since this its been asking for a pin that is not working with 1368 so not sure what pin i need to enter. Dont suppose anyone else has updated to this later version and had this issue of the need to enter a pin? bmw_20210703.zip is the one i tried. Subsequently tried all the other versions and same outcome i need to enter a pin.

Dam, so I have some different screen after firmware update? Not sure what I can try as I’ve tried to install a couple of times.
