Service key — a genuine BMW part, number 51 21 8 205 443. The number stamped on the part is 51218205443; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8205443. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts. It supersedes the older number 8205310, 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.
BMW draws it on 13 diagrams, among them Key with battery (up to 09/99) (41_0012) and Door handle front/lock/key (41_0044). BMW lists the quantity used as “as required”. It weighs about 10 g (under 0.1 lb). It also comes in BMW kits Set of Keys with EWS Control Unit (0008838) and Set of Keys with EWS Control Unit (0008841) and 23 more.
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
