Ohh I see what you mean. When I searched up boot I found something which in retrospect seems to go by the steering column in the dash. I thought it covered the joint indeed. So this is quite common then, interesting. I guess the only realistic way is replacing it or greasing it like you did.
I'm actually going to have a look at it in my car and see what shape it's in, no high hopes. I suppose lithium grease could hold up well there but maybe there's something that would lubricate better for it and keep dirt off?

Reporting in, assumed 335d has extra heavy steering then petrol e90(had 335xi few years ago). I cleaned steering ujoints w penetrating oil and sprayed some ATF for good measure. Took it for a drive and i was shocked w difference. Im sure atf will dryout/washout but for now it feels fantastic. I will be injecting ujoint connections w silicone grease next.
