Show original supplier description
The Genuine BMW Shift Lever is an original equipment replacement part for the E46 M3, designed to improve the shifter action for a crisper feel. This performance shift lever is approximately 1 inch shorter than the stock component, resulting in a reduction of shift throws by about 20%. Manufactured in France and made to BMW's stringent standards, this Genuine BMW part guarantees the same quality as the original equipment. It is important to inspect all shifter bushings and related components before installation, as worn bushings or damaged links can significantly impact shifter performance. This shift lever is specifically designed for the BMW M3 models from 2001 to 2006 with a manual transmission, 3.2L L6 S54 gas engine, and RWD. It supersedes the older BMW part number 25117522379.
