Does anyone know what this part is?

Mine doesn't have one, it's bare. It also looks like it never had one TBH.
Are you sure it's not only specified for other markets?

What production year is your car?

I am now wondering if there is more to this than meets the eye.

Your terminal clamp (with the nut on) is angled, where as the clamp with the plastic part is straight up.
Mine is also angled.

There was a battery cable recall for the E89, I have queried this with BMW and they say mine doesn't need it doing…

I am wondering if we have the updated version?

Looking at the plastic part again (after ordering) it does not look like the bend in the metal will be accommodated by it.

I will find out next week!

Mine was built March 2013, first of the facelft (LCI). The terminal looks like it never had a shroud or cover on TBH.

Mine is a 2012
