Product Overview
A front driveline clunk, vibration under acceleration, torn flex joint, loose CV joint, or seized universal joint can require the complete shaft after transfer-case output, differential input, mounts, and tires are checked. This assembly restores torque transfer from the transfer case to the front differential.
The source title's 2012 start date conflicts with the F15/F16 generation. Order by chassis, VIN, exact length, flange pattern, and 26209425907—not the broad year claim.

Compatibility Notice
Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.
Chassis code, engine, production date, flange, and length determine fit. The F15/F16 identity is more reliable than an unverified 2012–2017 range.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit an E70 X5? A: No direct fit should be assumed; this listing identifies F15/F16 and 26209425907.
Q: Can mismatched tires cause xDrive vibration? A: Yes. Tire circumference differences can load the transfer case and mimic driveline problems.
Q: Does the shaft include joints? A: A complete assembly normally includes its attached joint components as shown.
Q: Why replace flange bolts? A: BMW service procedures may specify one-time-use fasteners for driveline joints.
