did this fix the vibration? having vibration problems soon as i hit the gas more thank 50% down on the pedal. thinking this is it. it’s vibrates right under center car & towards the rear a bit. thanks
The guibo itself has the relevant directional arrows already present. It's good to use a silver sharpie to make the arrows easier to find/read, but you made the arrows in the opposite direction. Although your arrows were opposite, you correctly kept with that method upon installing the new guibo, so all is well. Just wanted to point out the built-in arrows to others that newly find this video. Great video, too.
Mine does the same. Was told by the shop foreman at my local BMW dealership that the Guibos arent known to go on this model. He recommended road force balancing instead @@bmwsincekid I have a 2018 540
On my 2018 you also need 8mm and 10mm sockets for some of the shields. You also don’t need to remove the exhaust, hang it down and bend the heat shield down and out of the way. Finally, agree you should grab spare exhaust bolts. Or muscle off the rubber.
Thanks again for your helpful video on repairing common faults on the G30 Thankfully most of what you have shown also goes with the uk 530d's so helpful to so many of us.👏🙌😊
My brother!!! That's so much appreciated as I know how far everything can be in the Uk!! I spend 3 years in West Kensington. I absolutely LOVE how everything works. From the underground to Hyde Park 😂 I'll most likely retire there how much I love it. Will definitely be back. Seriously appreciate you brother 🙏🙏
@FullBoltOn Garage Any time at all, I will be there to pick you up. West Kensington isn't far away from me, I'm just about 10 miles south of there. Can't promise I won't be picking your brains on some G30 improvements though 😉
You were just around the corner!!! Any day there's bmw talk is ALWAYS a good day 😂 would be a pleasure, my bro. I'll definitely circle back and make a group post when the time comes
Im at 96k miles. First started getting symptoms at around 90k miles but I threw it off to the new wheels I had gotten so never took a look at it driving around like that with multiple launches took its toll on this and also my center support bearing hoping getting both of these replaced helps mitigate the nasty vibration I get at 80ish mph when I have my lightweight wheels on.
You are such a useful channel for us G30/G31 owners. thanks a lot!!!! Perhaps if you have time, would be great to post a video about the subject of remapping. I have a 530d xdrive G31. Just hit 100K km, thinking to remap it. There are different opinions out there, whether remapping causes accellerated wear etc. thanks
So my problem is that my car on 3 gear on low RPM on Drive vibrate until it pass 4krpm right but if i put it on manual and do the shifting above 3k rpm it everything works normal
For us in the North, be a good idea to have another exhaust clamp handy. My bolt fell the hell apart when removing it. As for the rest it went as well as it did in your video. Thank you
While accessing mine under an 09 328xi has me removing little more than a single fastener that I think is a 10 mm for the heat shield; It's going to make up for it by having every single fastener on the disc totally rusted. Makes me want to hang a bucket full of penetrant over the shaft for it to sit in for a day before I touch it with a wrench 😅
I have a 2021 bmw 540i xdrive how do I screen mirror with iPhone 15 pro max it doesn’t connect or pop up at all I’ll like to drive and play video I coded it out in bummer code already for active motion while driving
FBOG sir, experienced this clunking in the middle centre turn on steering? Some says to tighten the one bolt below the power steering motor! Any help much appreciated...
thanks for the video ,, you have changed only one guibo , does it have another guibo near the rear diff ? since my car is F10 2014. i wonder mine might have 2 guibos rear and front .. confirm if you know abt this ..
Hello, thank you for the video, l have a question: because of Flex disc it possibly can shake a clutch? And shift gear? When I pass 120 km per hour the car start shaking under the seat !!! Thank you very much again
Great video. You made it so simple. I guess when you are good you are good. What ate symptoms of a broken flex disk. Mine makes clunking sound underneath the car...
Man, I can't even express how much I appreciate these words. Much love!! So flex disc symptoms are usually vibrations at mud to high speed. If you hear clucking noises and it's coming from the rear of the car under rear seats, then it's your rear transfer case, unfortunately. I've seen this in a handful of cars, and that's the culprit.
@@phopkins25 A shop did it. Less than an hour. But you can do it yourself at home without even dropping the exhaust just bend the shield out the way to get to the guibo and change it from there
If you attempt the job, you'll see firsthand why that's needed. You will not be able to torque them down. You'll also need to slide the shaft out to remove the old flex plate. The easiest and quickest way is what's shown in the video ✅️
@@FullBoltOnGarage So I carried out the job yesterday, I only needed to crop the exhaust down and I used a exhaust jack. I had so much room all I needed to do was either push the heat shield forward to very cleanly access the 6 bolts inc. torque wrench and slid the heatshield back to drop the center bearing. I used your video for a large reference thank you for that :)
@@FullBoltOnGarage Also, I was so impressed how clean it was behind that heat shield, after owning fords. Removing that tailshaft I could do it with 1 finger it was so easy
@@FullBoltOnGarage Total time taken to do the job was 45 minutes (BMW quoted me 5 hours labour and the part was actually very cheap so I purchased a genuine one)

Thank you for watching. Make sure to replace your Guibo!
Thanks for uploading the video, that's called "Giubo" not Guibo (GIUnto BOschi) as the inventor was an Italian engineer😊
did this fix the vibration? having vibration problems soon as i hit the gas more thank 50% down on the pedal. thinking this is it. it’s vibrates right under center car & towards the rear a bit. thanks

Great vid! Just fyi, my 2016 LCI 328xdrive f30 did NOT have a flex disc at all. Different design. Confirmed this mused and with 2 mechanics.
This is very very interesting!!! Ide love to see how the vibrations are distributed!!!
I cant thank you enough for putting in the work to share this with all of us. We are so damn fortunate to have knowledge like this at our fingertips.
Thank you for this. It's people like you who make it all worth it. Much love and respect my brother 🙏
I'm dreading doing this on mine. But I think I have to do the center bearing as well. Another awesome video bro. Short and to the point.
Much love my brother!!! Come for a visit and let's knock this one out too 😎
My g30 540i vibrates at high speed the rear guibo has been changed but not the center or the frontat engine
Watch the video and if you have access to a lift it will be way easier. It took my friend and I an hour 15 to get it done. Thanks to FBO. 😊

Do you know if there Is a billet guibo for the g30?
Not very sure there
No, it needs to have some flex.
Thanks I gotta do mine 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿💯
Yessir!!! You'll notice an immediate difference. Lmk of you have any questions 🙏

Yes! Completely gone now
Hi bra
Thanks for the video, but now I don't understand about that marking, what was it for ?
You’re the man 💪
Seriously appreciate the kind words brother 🙏 they inspire me to keep going 💪💪
yo whats 55nm to 90 degrees in torque? ft lbs for my torque wrench
Is it the same flex disc for all model g30s I have a 2019 m550?
Is the front one not usually changed at the same time?
Great video. You made it so simple. I guess when you are good you are good.

what a beast, pulls a third hand out like from nowhere😳
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love this
how long does it takes to replace the guibo yourself and how much do you think the dealer will quote me? Thanks!
$750 from non-dealer but very reputable independent BMW shop here in the twin cities of Minnesota
how long did this take?
Did you ever find out how long it took?
@@phopkins25 A shop did it. Less than an hour. But you can do it yourself at home without even dropping the exhaust just bend the shield out the way to get to the guibo and change it from there
Brilliant guide man, thanks so much for taking the time 👌
I enjoyed watching the video. I liked it and subscribed.
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Great video man !! Very helpful
All the love my friend 🙏
Do you have to fully remove the exhaust
You are amazing my man
Wait why did you have to remove the exhaust. I can see mine pretty clearly on my G30 520d
