2009 E91 335i towbar

Recommended Posts

Hi all

I'm looking for a tow bar setup for my 2009 E91 335i m sport.

I've had a search on here and google with limited results.

I want one that doesn't require the bumper to have a hole cut in it so that means one that comes from underneath the bumper would be ideal.

Does anyone have any leads on a nice setup?

Cheers

Talk to SD European in Hamilton - best bet is an NZ new BMW e90/91 with factory bar (think they are a westfalia model). Bar is the same for wagon and sedan.

Also look for Westfalia on Ebay.co.uk

Sometimes the shipping is not too bad.

worth bearing in mind that the UK Westfalia bars have a 50mm ball rather than the 1 7/8" that the BMW NZ ones have if you go that way

NZ New E90 / E91 did not come with factory bar, they are all local fit bars made in NZ using the Westfalia hardware and electronics.

Pretty sure they were 50mm ball in NZ as well, although the very final ones would be removeable tongues where you can get both options (which is quite handy).

If you do get a UK one it won't have the chain bracket which you will need for NZ WoF, which you will have to get locally.

Not sure if you sorted this. May be worth asking whether the drawbar is included with this one - has the towbar mount and electrics? (NZ new E91 335i)

Im on the hunt for the same, lemme know if you find a good source. My E91 is all wired up for it, just no bar.

Still haven't got this sorted.

Anyone got a e90/91 tow bar setup?

If not is there a recommended one installed in Auckland?
