06 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→Return pipe — a genuine BMW part, number 11 53 1 261 156. The number stamped on the part is 11531261156; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1261156. You will find it on our Engine shelf, under Thermostat and coolant lines. It supersedes the older number 1256494, 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 11 diagrams, among them Cooling System Water Hoses (11_0670) and Cooling System Water Hoses (11_0671). It weighs about 380 g (0.8 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
