BMW Type L / LW Differential Repair Kit (Post-2006 Models) Addressing Modern Challenges: BMW transitioned to Type L differentials after 2006, incorporating ball bearings for reduced friction. While this design reduced friction, the durability of ball bearings was compromised, leading to frequent whining noises. Our comprehensive kit offers a reliable solution to address the noisy differential issue found in many post-2006 BMW models. Applicability: This kit is designed for L type differentials present in the following BMW models: 1 series: E81, E82, E87, E88, F20, F21 2 series:F22, F23 3 series: E90, E91, E92, E93, F30, F31, F34 4 series: F32, F33, F36 5 series: E60, E61 6 series: E63, E64 X3 series:F25 X4 series: F26 X5 series: E70, F15 X6 Series: F16 How to tell if your differential needs bearings replacement? Symptoms of a Failing Differential: Notice a characteristic whine during acceleration or coasting? You might be dealing with a differential issue. Here's a quick test: simulate a tire warm-up by steering left and right during a drive. If the noise varies in intensity, you're likely hearing a wheel bearing. If it remains consistent, your differential bearings may require replacement. RacingDiffs Quality Assurance: Our components match or exceed OEM standards, ensuring top-tier performance and longevity.
