03 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→This is a genuine BMW needle bearing, part number 33 12 1 242 738. The number stamped on the part is 33121242738; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1242738. You will find it on our Suspension shelf, under Other Rear Axle parts. It supersedes the older number 1241473, so a part carrying that number is the same part. BMW has since replaced it with 1242739.
BMW's catalog records no E36 or E46 it is fitted to; it belongs to other BMW models.
BMW draws it on 3 diagrams, among them Differential-Housing Cover (33_0620) and Differential-Crown Wheel Inst.Parts (33_0628). It weighs about 143 g (0.3 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
