special bmw tools?

Is there a website that sell bunch of special bmw tools for 1991 318is??

I'm sure pelican parts has any tools that BMW had. What are you looking for though? All I can think of for "special tools" is the valve adjustment thing that you don't even need. Or are you talking about the trunk tool kit?

you don't need that socket to replace the CSB, just the output seal

In almost all cases, a failure of the CSB will be the result of binding u-joints in the drive shaft. Which means that replacement of only the CSB is a waste of time and money. For the complete fix the drive shaft has to be replaced. If you use a rebuilt drive shaft (I like DriveLine Services of Portland) it will come with a new CSB installed.

meh, I was half joking. The blue clamp just keeps the two parts of the driveshaft together. But you can have if you want.

You don't have to remove that "nut" to change the CSB. All that does is tighten down to keep the two parts of the driveshaft from separating. You only need to turn it slightly (if any) to pull the two parts apart. Be sure to mark their alignment before you do though.

Also, worn u-joints aren't the only thing that make CSB's fail. Have you never heard of rubber deteriorating over several years?

Be sure to "preload" the bearing as well when you bolt the driveshaft back up.

while i agree with j-levie...

if you just replace the csb it'll still last quite awhile. i did that to my ex-gfs e30. her csb was bad and her u-joint was loose, but she didnt have the $300+ for a new driveshaft. so i just replaced the csb. a year later it's still driving fine.

It only clunk when I let off the gas then shift but if I keep the gas pedal steady while shifting is smooth. also there's no vibration problem.

Think the diff just need new fluid.
