BMW 3 Series E90 reference guide
BMW E90 parts and service guide
Use this guide to understand the BMW E90 service categories, engine differences and part-selection checks that matter when ordering in South Africa.
BMW E90 parts identification
The E90 is a 3 Series sedan generation with more than one petrol and diesel application. The model badge is therefore a starting point, not a complete parts key.
- Vehicle details to record
- Keep the engine designation, production details, body style and old article reference together. Filters, spark plugs, brake packages and wiper fittings should be checked against that record.
- Maintenance planning
- For a service enquiry, organise the oil and filter history first, then separate petrol ignition requirements from diesel applications. Brake and cooling symptoms need inspection rather than a guessed catalog match.
Start with the right search
Vehicle Search narrows a known vehicle application. OEM Search is useful when a reliable article number is already available.
