In short
The N54 has two turbos. It was in early 335i, 535i, 135i, and X6 35i cars. The later N55 looks close but is a different engine.
Many people want a low mile N54 for a swap or a fix. The page must show photos of that exact engine.
Will it fit my car?
Check N54 or N55 on the plate. The turbos and fuel parts are not the same.
Send the VIN for E90, E60, E71, and Z4 cars before you pay.
What we check

A clean top photo is not enough. You need the stamp and the bottom too.
