What's Included

This is a genuine BMW rubber buffer, part number 16 12 1 178 832. The number stamped on the part is 16121178832; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1178832. You will find it on our Fuel System shelf, under Lines.

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.

BMW draws it on 37 diagrams, among them Tubing support (16_1033) and Brake Pipe Rear ABS/ASC+T (34_0552). It weighs about 10 g (under 0.1 lb). It also comes in BMW kit Installing Set Catalyzer (9064431).
