How to replace the driveshaft bearing on the BMW 5 Series E60

Model: BMW Serie 5 E60, E61 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Bearing

In today's video tutorial we will see how to disassemble and replace the driveshaft bearing on the BMW 5 Series E60, following the instructions below. First of all we lift the car and we go to remove the bulkhead or the bracket of our exhaust manifold, thus removing the catalyst; then we go to unscrew all the fixing screws of the transmission shaft flange, in order to disconnect and remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, once removed, we can go to disassemble and replace the bearing, reassembling everything later!
