Driveshafts Help needed

[Rookie Kootie]

Hi everyone nice to meet you all.

I have a 2003 E85 3.0i roadster SMG.

I currently have the rear subframe removed to replace some bushings.

I'm in need of two rear driveshafts which will fit my model of Z4. I'm not sure if all driveshaft are the same for all Z4's?

I'd rather get original BMW driveshafts than cheap aftermarkets which are available online.

If anyone has old original driveshaft lying around I will buy as long as they're in good condition.

Can someone please help?

Many thanks!

Hi there Rookie

No idea where in the country you are but Quarry motors in Sheffield are BMW breakers that sell quality used parts, they’re not a backstreet setup so you won’t have any issues. Worth a call if nothing turns up here.

Thank you so much for your help John.

I'll give them a call if no one on here has anything.

It's worth editing the title of this post to say that you're wanting driveshafts

Could they be refurbished?

Hi & welcome again. I did reply to you in the newbies section but perhaps you missed that :idunno:.

Don’t you have any photos of part numbers? See link below. Part number is on the end (apparently).

Just saw your other post in the newbies section. You need to unbolt a section to reveal the part number. Check the link above to see what I mean (and compare with your Driveshafts).

Thanks for looking this up for me - greatly appreciated.

I'll have a look tomorrow to find the part number
