Genuine BMW part 11 34 8 649 768: Timing chain. The number stamped on the part is 11348649768; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 8649768. You will find it on our Engine shelf, under Valves with springs. It supersedes the older number 1439854, so a part carrying that number is the same part.
It fits every E46 body style (316i, 316ti, 318i and 318ti, 2001–2004), with the N42 or N46 engines.
BMW draws it on the Timing and valve train-timing chain (11_3189) diagram.
