How we source 7 Series parts
Stripped from accident-damaged BMW cars, then tested
- Over 15 years stripping accident-damaged vehicles for used parts.
- Removed carefully and tested before a part is sold, so you're not paying for something that doesn't work.
- Matched to your car — send the year, engine and VIN if you have it, and we'll check it's the right part.
Parts for the BMW 7 Series
The 7 Series is BMW's full-size luxury saloon, built since 1977 across seven generations: E23, E32, E38, E65, F01, G11 and, from 2022, G70. Because one page covers them all, the most important thing you can tell us is which generation you drive. The year on your registration certificate usually settles it.
Two very different 745i's
"745i" is a badge that has meant two different cars here, and it causes confusion when people order parts.
- The SA E23 745i. Cars.co.za describes it as a very limited South African special: just over 200 left the Rosslyn factory, using an upgraded version of the dual-camshaft M88 engine from the BMW M1. BMW South Africa itself lists the 745i among the cars that made the brand genuinely South African.
- The E65 745i. The pre-facelift fourth-generation car also wore a 745i badge, with a 4.4-litre VALVETRONIC V8 that BMW also used in the updated X5 4.4i and the E60 545i.
Their engines are completely different, so if you ask for a 745i part, tell us the year.
What changes between generations
Wikipedia notes that the first 7 Series used straight-six petrol engines only, while later generations used four-, six-, eight- and twelve-cylinder engines, petrol and diesel, with and without turbos. So, beyond the generation, the badge matters: a 730d, a 740i and a 750i of the same year carry different engines.
What to send
The year, the badge, the part, and the VIN from your registration certificate. For older cars, a photo of the part you are replacing helps a great deal. If your 7 Series is overheating, read our guide to BMW water pump, thermostat and radiator repairs first, and for diesel or direct-injection faults, our BMW fuel injection guide.
