Clutch, gearbox, transmission (BMW 5 Series E34)

The engine torque is transmitted through the clutch, gearbox and propeller shaft to the rear axle gearbox (differential). Two half-axles extend from it to the rear wheels. All parts must be regularly checked, and the oil in both gearboxes must be changed.

Attention: Old oil is handed over to special waste collection points. At the places where oil is sold, a certain amount of old oil is used to pay for new oil. Therefore, do not throw away the receipt and canister for subsequent delivery! The address of the nearest point can be found out at the city or village administration. Under no circumstances pour out old oil or throw it away with household garbage. This causes irreparable harm to the environment, for example, pollution of water bodies.
