Part number 66-9313 is a practical replacement choice when the original axle shows wear, noise, or boot damage.

This part cross-references BMW 31607558952 and 31607570274 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping during hard turns
• Grease leakage from a torn outer CV boot
• Front-end vibration during acceleration
• Grinding or popping noises from the driveline
• ABS warning light caused by a damaged sensor ring or wiring near the axle

Installation Notes and Tips

• Fits 2006-2007 BMW 525xi, front right; 2006-2007 BMW 530xi, front right; 2008 BMW 528xi, front right; 2008 BMW 535xi, front right; 2009-2010 BMW 528i xDrive, front right; 2009-2010 BMW 535i xDrive, front right
• Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service; unsupported suspension movement can damage the inner joint
• Use a torque wrench for the spindle nut and follow manufacturer torque specifications
• Do not reuse the old prevailing-torque lock nut; replace it with the supplied new nut
• Replace transaxle seals when servicing CV drive axle assemblies to help prevent leaks
• Inspect the ABS ring, sensor, and wiring during installation to avoid an erratic speed signal

Quality Assurance

Cardone designs its CV drive axles around known failure modes in original equipment parts, including boot cracking, joint wear, and shaft runout. Each shaft is checked for straightness to support smooth operation, and the axle seal surface is machined for proper finish after heat treatment to promote seal durability.
