10 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→This is a genuine BMW sprocket, part number 11 31 1 278 990. The number stamped on the part is 11311278990; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1278990. You will find it on our Engine shelf, under CAMSHAFT. It supersedes the older number 1278989, 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 14 diagrams, among them Timing and Valve Train-Camshaft (11_0387) and Timing and Valve Train-Camshaft (11_0397).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
