A CV axle has flexible joints. Often, these joints wear out, or seize from contaminants due to the protective boot tearing open. A worn joint is prone to breakage, or other hazards. If your vehicle needs a new CV axle, install a quality TRQ axle that is engineered to your vehicle’s specifications. This video shows you how to install one in your 2003-2010 BMW X3.

Why take the caliper and rotor off?
for me was much easier to remove cv axel when i remove brake caliper 2 bolts, to take off strut i undid svay bar upper link bolt. To put strut back in plase i undo three uper strut bolts, hoist disk with a jack and it comes in place much easier. All in all your procedure was handy. Thank you.
show the left side and how you actually get it in and out. it’s different and does not fit

What were the symptoms of this needing to be changed?
I will just wait for someone to enlighten us
It has a vairable pitch with a pretty high frequency wissle as you drive on freeway. it goes louder when you are coasting. Think of your washer spinning at high speed, and add a bit of wissle sound to it. That is the initial sign of that given away.
I have 2014 x5 50i Msport adaptive suspension.. My symptoms are it feels like misfires or a bad flat tire. I think the best way to confirm is to do visual inspection. I found that the CV axle had too much play in it.
Popping when you turn certain ways.
