05 View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→This is a genuine BMW sleeve, part number 32 31 1 160 040. The number stamped on the part is 32311160040; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1160040. You will find it on our Steering shelf, under Other Steering parts.
It fits the E36 coupe and convertible (318i and 323i, 1992–1999), with the M42, M43, M44 or M52 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Fixed Steering Column Tube (32_0710) and Vertically Adjustable Steering Column (32_0718). BMW's catalog calls for two of these at each place it is fitted. It weighs about 30 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.
