Exactly

The new part number of DVD drive is 65839273195 and it`s good for MK4, Navi 02/03 and iDRIVE Professional ССС

If you r wondering what`s the difference, I will tell you - previous part number was for DVD drive made in China (what I bought first), now (the new part number) it`s made in Hungary.

I bougt a new DVD drive 65839273194 yesterday here in Germany.
Even if the new model is called M5 (not longer M3 4.6) it works perfect in my MK4.
The price was about 84 euros. I had to give back the old drive (deposit).

Thumbs up It worked!

I completed the pick-up replacement on my mk4 and everything is working fine! I ordered the white-faced SF-HD4 then tested it with a CD, original BMW DVD and burned DVD-R - all worked perfectly. Part came from LogicToyz.co.uk "Sanyo SF-HD4 Optical Pickup white Cap Straight line Double Resitors SFHD4 S-Type Car DVD Laser Lens" @ £14.99.

I got away without using a desoldering braid, was just very careful when removing the metal shield. The only worrying part was removing the solder bridges. I touched the iron on them until the solder melted, then used gravity and a bit of pushing with the tip to move the solder down onto a label stuck to the ribbon not far away.

Thanks for the instructions; wouldn't have even attempted this without them!

Your welcome.
The two solder bridges are to protect the pick-up from ESD (electrostatic discharge). As soon as the laser unit is assembled in the DVD drive / MK4 the ESD problem no longer exists.
