Hi Lewis

Welcome to the Forum

You mean the thingamajig that connects to the whatsit 😃 sorry couldn't help myself

Try www.realoem.com it is a BMW online Parts list put the last 7 digits of your Vin Number in the search box it will bring up your model

Then search the sections for what you need there are little exploded drawings that will help, plus part numbers and description for ordering Note the prices shown are in US$ and are not UK fixed

The plastic pin connector that secures the gear cable to the gear selector in a BMW F45 is commonly known as a "shift cable bushing" or "gear selector linkage bushing.

Hi all, I am new here. Have bought 2017 2.18d Active Tourer M Sport but without realizing that it does not have Apple Car Play which is a big disappointment to be honest. Does anyone upgraded Active Tourer's Idrive version to 5 or 6?
