Transform the way your all-wheel-drive 5 Series feels on the road with this Powerflex urethane insert kit for the front location of the rear axle carrier. By filling the voids in the original rubber mount, these inserts rein in unwanted fore-aft movement and flex, giving you crisper turn-in, better traction out of bends and a calmer, more planted rear end under braking and acceleration. Ideal for fast road and daily use, this is a simple, high-value chassis upgrade that keeps NVH in check while sharpening the car’s response.

Why this upgrade works

• Controls sub-frame shift for more consistent rear geometry and grip
• Noticeably tighter handling with improved stability at speed
• Helps reduce wheel hop and rear-end float on uneven surfaces
• Durable polyurethane resists oil, salt and road grime far better than ageing rubber
• Designed to press into the cavities of the OE bush for a straightforward install
• Backed by the Powerflex Lifetime Warranty for peace of mind

Vehicle compatibility

For BMW 5 Series E60 Saloon and E61 Touring with xDrive all-wheel drive. This insert fits the front position of the rear sub-frame where the OE mount corresponds to 33316770826. If you are seeking a full replacement bush rather than an insert, use Powerflex part PFR5-720.
