Hi,

Great! Is there a Z4M specific version or is it the same as E46?

I got mine from Cotswold BMW for the same price as BMW Plymouth:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-BMW-6 ... 0290.m3507

Which seems to be the same as on an E46. (Same Part number).

The only issue with the E46 is it has to be a facelift Sport model - prior to the facelift all E46s have a 5 speed box and only 330is, 320ds, 330ds and 325tis got the 6-speed box with the facelift. And SE models had a different knob AFAIK.

I believe there is an illuminated ZHP - I think it is from the E39 M5, but then you need to find an electrical feed.

Make that change - the ZHP is so much better than the standard one!

That is weird - I wonder if they made some "test" models?

My 52 plate 325ti Sport pre-facelift has a 5-speed, but my nephew's 03 plate facelift 325ti SE had a 6-speed box. His 54 plate facelift 325i Touring is a 5-speed, but my 04 plate facelift 320td was a 6-speed.

To the best of my knowledge the six speed box was standard on all 330s, pre and post facelift. I think on the 325 too.

Definitely not standard on the 325i - my nephew's 325i Touring on a 54 plate has a 5-speed.

And this pre-facelift 330Ci only has a 5-speed (see photo 14):-

Sorry it doesn’t come up when I use the link. Can’t swear on the 325 but definitely mine had a six speed box. E46 M3 was also a six speed box pre and post facelift.

Probably same logic as with Z4’s M54 engined. 2.5 5 speed 3.0 6 speed

All pre facelift coupes should have been 5 speed. I've owned over 25 e46s now many of them 330ci and even 03 plate pre facelift cars were 5 speed

They introduced the 6 speed box on all facelift coupes and saloon/touring after March 2003 build date.

The 325ti was the only non 3 litre e46 aside the m3 to have a 6 speed box

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_3_Series_(E46)
2003[edit]

In March 2003, the facelift (LCI) versions of the coupe and convertible models (except M3) were released for the 2004 model year.

Manual transmission for 330 models upgraded from 5-speed to 6-speed.
18 Z4s owned to date.

Current: 2.5i Titan silver

Daily driver: 480bhp M140i Shadow edition.

I’ve thought on this overnight, 14 years since I owned the car have ravaged my memory. The 02 plate I had was a 5 speed, apologies for questioning your expert knowledge. :oops: Got the M3 straight after that which had the 6 speed.
