Parts catalog is not always correct

I have experienced strange thing so I will post my experience.

I wanted a trim cover around the AC for my modify. The real name is "Cover, function carrier centre."


I looked up the ETK and RealOEM and found out the P/N is 51456976808 for my car. With auto AC, with seat heater, without navi.
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...&fg=30&lang=en

But the thing arrived is totally different.


P/N is correct.


My dealer also said that they would have ordered the same thing if they had to. They are asking BMW AG what is the correct P/N.

It was a cheap parts so not a big deal but be careful when ordering an expensive parts.
I think they will exchange the parts I received to the correct one this time.

Ok, looks like KIYO won't be working in the Parts Dept any longer!


KIYO, I can't remember what options your car has. ? I only rememebr no Nav/iDrive right? Do you have heated seats? You have to look at the options: Yes/No on the ETK list.


I think this is the correct part you need: #51456976846

number nine, in the parts ETK illustration bellow.

Correct page however, I think Kiyo needs:

For vehicles with
Seat heating driver/passenger S494A=Yes
and
Automatic air conditioning S534A=Yes
and
Navigation system Professional S609A = No
09 Cover, function carrier center 1 51456976808 $15.21

re-read KIYO's post. That IS the part he ordered! P/N is 51456976808

Since I now see (by looking at KIYO's attached pic! How could I have been so blind!>?) that he has no nav, but heated seats and auto HVAC, I think he needs this part: BMW P/N 51456976842

Indeed, thus agreeing with KIYO's thread title. Which is actually scary as I have a mod list with all the part numbers from there.
