11 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→Cap nut — a genuine BMW part, number 11 12 7 838 078. The number stamped on the part is 11127838078; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 7838078. You will find it on our Engine shelf, under Cylinder head with cover. It supersedes the older number 7830470, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
It fits the E46 coupe and convertible (M3, 2001–2006), with the S54 engine.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Cylinder head cover (11_2995) and Cylinder head cover (11_6254). BMW's catalog calls for two of these at each place it is fitted. It weighs about 20 g (under 0.1 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
