Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s year, model, and engine-start/stop configuration before ordering, especially on BMW X4 and 335i applications noted with stop/start coverage. Confirm the clockwise rotation, 13-pinion-tooth count, and Nippondenso OE reference match the removed unit. Mounting bolts and mounting shims are not included, so reuse or source the correct hardware as needed.
