    Have you tried www.etk.cc?

    Enter last seven of chassis number and you can then view all parts for your vehicle

    Are there any pipes/cables attached?

    Post another pic from directly under the item, at this time I could only suggest fuel-filter or even suspension balancer but without seeing its connections I'm guessing !

    i have just looked on www.etk.cc (thanks for the link) and it seems to be an Activated Charcoal Filter with vent pipe, i know on my Nissan Skyline R33 we could remove the charcoal filter but not sure if ths is possible on the BMW?

    Has anyone removed this or moved it somewhere else?

    Thanks David
