One problem related to driveshaft has been reported for the 2008 BMW 535. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The drive shaft for my BMW 535xi broke while driving straight on the highway without any warming. This caused considerable damage to the underneath components of the car. Such as ripping the data cable and burst the transmission and all the transmission fluid licked out instantly. My vehicle stalled in the middle of traffic with on coming cars. I have uploaded a picture of the broken drive shaft while the car was being towed . I have the documents but I am unable to upload them at this time. In addition the pressure hose for the power pump burst and it is unfair that I have to replace all 3 power hosts because it is a BMW recommendation.
