Final Drive Oil Change/Spline Lube BMW R1200GS/1250GS : DETAILED Step-by-Step Instructions

This video covers a detailed step-by-step instruction on how to change the final drive gear oil and also lubricate the splines between the drive shaft and the final drive on a 2016 BMW R1200GS Adventure. This video also shows how to reconnect the final drive to the drive shaft, which is a little tricky to do, but with a little patience and finesse this is definitely possible for us DYI'ers. There are a lot of good videos out there on how to do this job, but I didn't find any that went into the detail I was looking for, especially on getting that final drive mated to the drive shaft.

Parts and supplies needed for this job:

- 180ML gear oil (SAE 75W90) (BMW PN 07512296486)
- O-RING FINAL DRIVE DRAIN PLUG 2005-
2020 (BMW PN 33117695219)
- GASKET RING FINAL DRIVE FILL, COPPER (BMW PN 07119963132)
- Paralever Fillister-head screw (BMW PN 33 35 8533524). I read that it's recommended to change this bolt each time, but I have re-used mine.
- Spline grease, moly-based. Castrol Molub Alloy TA, or equivalent. I use Staburags grease because I have it on-hand
* Castrol Molub Alloy TA Part#000-043-305-08-OEM
* STABURAGS NBU 30 PTM SPLINE LUBRICANT
- Kluber Isoflex Topas NB 52, or equivalent. This helps seal the rubber boot to swing arm
* Kluber Isoflex Topas NB 52 (50g) 004131-221
- Small applicator brush for applying grease to splines
- Blue loctite - for brake caliper bolts
- Red loctite - for M10 bolt connecting final drive to paralever and spray guard bolts
- Wire brush for cleaning bolts

Tools needed:

- Socket wrench
- Torque wrench
- Screwdriver (I used this to assist with reconnecting final drive to drive shaft)
- Wire brush
- Lift jack or something else to support final drive (optional - you can use your arms)
- TORX bits: T30, T40, T45 and T50

Torque Values
