Hi to all!

[blk_red_gut]

I'm brand spankin new here. This is my 4th Z4 and i'm trying to fix the premium/hifi carver amp issue. My car is an early production of 03/03. I found a used premium/hifi amp that's a factory part# but doesn't say Carver. Does anyone here know a way to check compatibility before i buy it? Thanks in advance the part# of the replacement radio i found is 65. 126974231 My vin# is 4USBT33493LR63721

According to RealOEM.com, which is the “go to” resource for checking BMW part numbers, there are many different interchangeable part numbers for the top hi-fi amp. The part number you quoted is one of them, so you should be OK.

It doesn’t help that the Top hi-fi system is variously referred to as “Carver”, “DSP” etc. they are all manufactured by Lear if I remember correctly.

The part label on my oem amp does say Carver which is where the confusion started
