Buying Drivetrain Parts for a 2020 BMW 230I

On this vehicle, the drivetrain system moves power from transmission to wheels through axles, CV joints, driveshafts, differentials and wheel-end hardware.

  • Confirm you have the 2.0L L4 Turbocharged engine — every part on this page is matched to it.
  • Read the notes on each row for position, trim and spec qualifiers before you order.
  • Where labor overlaps, replace the differential or transfer-case fluid with any axle or seal job while everything is already open.
  • Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.
