2020 X7 M50i Rear Steering Noise

XRAVE · 09-17-2024, 09:31 AM

My 2020 X7 recently started making a bit of noise at low speed when turning, especially in parking lots. Car vibrates a bit. From what I can find online, its related to the dif for the rear steering.

Dealer wants $225 to diagnose to report to Warranty. I have platinum coverage through Axiom, anyone have experience with this being covered?

So it's possibly the transfer case as well, alot of people have had it replaced but requires replacement of the fluids first, roughly $500 to do. I have just had mine replaced, but still having the noise, so might be the differential, not sure at this point. Good luck with this!

I'm not aware of Axiom's labor payouts, but you should not be paying out of pocket to the dealership to diagnose repairs unless the repair has already been deemed not covered by the warranty company... Sounds like the dealership service center is double dipping!
