-- View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→Control unit, trailer tow hitch — a genuine BMW part, number 71 60 6 872 319. The number stamped on the part is 71606872319; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 6872319. You will find it on our Tools shelf, under Other Equipment Parts parts. It supersedes the older number 6870517, so a part carrying that number is the same part. BMW has since replaced it with 6874848 and 6879426.
BMW's catalog records no E36 or E46 it is fitted to; it belongs to other BMW models.
BMW draws it on 19 diagrams, among them Retrofit kit, trailer tow hitch, removable (03_1035) and Retrofit kit, trailer tow hitch, removable (03_1036). It weighs about 180 g (0.4 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
