01 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→This is a genuine BMW fuel tank, part number 16 11 8 521 261. The number stamped on the part is 16118521261; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8521261. You will find it on our Fuel System shelf, under Fuel tank with filler pipe. It supersedes the older number 7720509, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
BMW's catalog records no E36 or E46 it is fitted to; it belongs to other BMW models.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Fuel tank (16_0648) and Painted parts M847 biarritzblau met (51_7300). It weighs about 6.8 kg (15 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
