E46 330d diff and brakes

Recommended Posts

Pretty sure they have a Typ 215/220k diff and the same (big) brakes as the 330i

Quick trip to RealOEM will set you straight.

Try here  http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog

Put the last seven digits of your vin in the  box bmw vin click decode it will come up with the relevant parts fitted to your vehicle. For a 2000 330 the brakes are the same for a d model as a petrol front 325x25, rear 320x22 not sure on diff would think it is a medium case. The ratios are different from the petrol, diesel models  manual trans 2.28, 2.81 auto ,petrol  man trans 2.93 auto 3.38 info came from the above site

Easiest way to check the diff size is to look at the 'Final Drive, Gasket Set' tab in RealOEM/BMWfans.info

It will say the diff type against the rear cover & gasket items.

For the 330d it is listed as TYP 215/220k (big case)

For the 330i it is listed as TYP 188k (medium case)
