Drive Shaft — a genuine BMW part, number 23 21 1 282 429. The number stamped on the part is 23211282429; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1282429. You will find it on our Transmission shelf, under Transmission shafts. It supersedes the older number 1222370, so a part carrying that number is the same part.

It fits every E36 body style (318i, 318ti, 320i, 323i and 325i, 1992–1999), with the M40, M42, M43, M44, M50 or M52 engines — and the European-market versions. It also fits the E46 sedan, coupe and touring (316i and 316i 1.6, 1998–2003), with the M43, N40 or N42 engines.

BMW draws it on 4 diagrams, among them S5D...G drive shaft/output shaft (23_0719) and S5D...G drive shaft/output shaft (23_1182). It weighs about 1.3 kg (3.0 lb).

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
