When did the 328i differentials change from bolted to welded ring gears?

Does anyone know? I searched and can’t find for 328 diffs only for 335 diffs.
I sourced a 3.91 from a 2006 xi hoping it’s bolted and I can just DIY drop in a LSD and swap the pinion flange to fit my driveshaft. Last edited by Biginboca; 05-10-2018 at 12:30 PM.. |

Ok so I have some good news I guess. I emailed M Factory this question and they said all 328i diffs are bolted...

My stock '11 rear end is bolted. And the '06 E84 3.64 diff I mistakenly bought is bolted as well (but pinion is not interchangeable into my stocker).
Just another data point. |
