BMW 1 & 3 Series Type 168 Rear Diff OEM Bearing, Seal & Planet Gear Rebuild Kit

BMW 1 series & 3 series Type 168 rear differential rebuild kit with bearings, seals and planet gears for years 2004 onwards

To tell if your differential is a Type 168 please count the number of bolts holding the rear cover to the diff housing, there should be 7 bolts.

Alternatively you can use the RealOEM website and enter your vehicle details. Click on the axle icon and then click on the final drive gasket set icon. Number 1 will either be Type 168 or Type 188.

If your rear cover takes 8 bolts you have a Type 188 differential fitted to your vehicle and these parts will not fit.
