Z4 Salmon relays

[Usernamechris]

Hi. New to the forum. I have a 13 reg 2 litre Z4 and wondered if it is wise to change the Salmon relays in the boot. If so, does anyone know the part number and best place to obtain. Thanks.

Many thanks for the prompt reply. Parts should be okay from Sytner. How often should they be changed, or just as a precaution?

It’s generally suggested every 5 years..of course depends on usage , storage conditions etc etc ..

Best to do it on purchase then as suggested..it’s unusual that they fail..but..when they do fail it can be really really bad..

No, not yet. Sounds fair. How to pay?
