can you reverse search Part numbers?

idle control valve here, part number 0 280 140 524

what is it from? 100% from bmw, 99.9% chance its e30 not sure which one though!

If its an m20 one i will chuck it in with the touring

L shaped or T shaped?

Why don't you just search for m40 engined ICV and then m20 ICV, and see which number the part matches to....

m10's don't have them..

depends Dobbie!

i have 2 facelift 325's with the same engine and one car has an L shape and the other a T

but one off a 325i works, because i took one off a 320i in the scrappy and put it on my sport and it's run a dream ever since

Put a picture up!
