A powerful engine contributes to sheer driving pleasure – but engine noise and pollutants do not. Original BMW exhaust systems provide better engine performance and lower consumption if weight is reduced. The typical discreet yet dynamic "BMW sound" – which is different for each BMW model – is retained.

Look forward to years of sheer driving pleasure: an Original BMW Clutch has been designed to last for approximately 120,000 kilometres and even then only produces wear of maximum 1.5 millimetres per side. It is also maintenance-free due to its hydraulic operation. Thanks to the high manufacturing precision, this Original BMW Part can also easily withstand temperatures of up to 150 degrees Celsius. So nothing stands in the way of long, sporty-dynamic driving experiences.

In an emergency every centimetre counts. So Original BMW Brakes are individually matched to the model-specific interaction of such factors as aerodynamics, ABS, chassis, bodywork and engine. Special composite materials stand for maximum braking safety and long life. These Original BMW Parts are tested time and again in comprehensive examinations and simulations. So that you can rely on them when it matters most.

BMW relies on the sophisticated gas-assisted, double-tube design for shock absorbers. The shock absorbers, which are perfectly matched to the vehicle engine, are characterized by the improved ride comfort, finer response behaviour and lower noise development. The functional stability is ever-present under extreme conditions: Even between -40 and +100 degrees Celsius these Original BMW Parts provide comfort and safety in the hot or cold temperatures.

The Original BMW Windshield provides excellent visibility and the functionality of the relevant assistance systems. Thanks to its perfect shape the front windscreen is watertight and draft-free; its special curve enables the windshield wipers to remove the maximum amount of water with each stroke. An Original BMW Windshield ensures that all of the technically integrated elements– from the rain sensors to the BMW Head-Up Display – remain fully functional.

Maintenance-free for up to 50,000 starts, matched especially to each engine type for reduced fuel consumption and suitable for use even in extreme conditions: there is only one word to describe Original BMW Starters – reliable. Temperature-resistant from -40 to +100 degrees Celsius, perfect protection from corrosion and dirt due to their design and made from the highest quality materials.

An active contribution to maintaining the value of other vehicle components: Original BMW Water Pumps remain absolutely reliable even under extreme temperature conditions. Tailored to the specific engine, precisely machined and intensively tested, they are characterized above all else by their long life. The only time that you'll see an overheated engine, is when you pass one.

Sporty driving characteristics at the highest level: Original BMW Automatic Transmissions use state of-the-art technology and optimum gear ratios to offer excellent acceleration. To consistently ensure BMW driving dynamics, all components are perfectly coordinated. And just in case you were wondering, 1 million kilometres of test driving precedes every series release. How far do you want to drive?
