Which Airbags
New owner of my first ever BMW, and dived in with a 2002 4.6 is. Initial impressions are good, it has plenty of service history and in fairly good nick. I have some of the common issues one being the fact that I obviously forgot to purchase all the pixels on the dash ! Anyway sometimes overnight the car sags a bit at the rear and having a look at the airbags they look quite tired and I intend to replace them in the next week or so. Having looked at the Arnott website I am confused at which airbags I need. I only have air suspension at the rear and wouldn't know which type to purchase so any advice is gratefully received. Many thanks Paul |

My suggestion for buying parts...is ALWAYS look up the 11 digit BMW part nbr FIRST if you're purchasing from a non BMW vendor. That way you lessen the chance of ordering the wrong part. If you use any of the online part databases...you can enter the last 7 digits of your VIN...and that will pull up the diagrams and part nbr index specifically for your BMW:
For example, if you click the following link, you will see the BMW part nbrs (left/right) for the rear air springs for a 2002 4.6is (#1 in the diagram below). Arnott lists the BMW part nbr on their website to help choose the correct ones. You can double check my search by going to one of the linked sites and enter your X5's VIN info, then work your way back to the REAR AXLE (main group) & SELF LEVELING (sub group) to pull up the specific part nbr index for your X5:

Qsilver7 many thanks for the help, I have already attained the build spec from BMW using the VIN, so I will now use the links above to further assist.
Also many thanks to everyone else for the welcome Paul |
