Genuine BMW part 33 21 1 229 591: Output shaft, left (exchange unit). The number stamped on the part is 33211229591; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1229591. BMW's catalog calls it “Exch. output shaft, left”. You will find it on our Suspension shelf, under Other Rear Axle parts.

It fits every E46 body style (320i, 323i, 325i and 328i, 1999–2006), with the M52, M54 or M56 engines — and the European-market versions.

BMW draws it on 3 diagrams, among them Output shaft (33_1148) and Output shaft (33_1188). It weighs about 5.2 kg (12 lb).

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
