Detailed Description
Designed for the BMW 325i and BMW 325iX, this intake hose follows the original equipment layout to restore the connection between intake components. The molded assembly helps maintain the correct routing and diameter, while the rubber construction supports long-term service in the engine bay. Part number 696-072 is a specific-fit replacement, not a universal hose, and it is listed with fitment for 1987-1989 BMW applications with position notes shown in the fitment data. If you are replacing a worn or cracked intake hose on a BMW 325i or BMW 325iX, 696-072 provides a direct-match service part for the listed applications.
Common Uses
- Replacing a cracked or split intake hose
- Restoring proper air routing in the intake tract
- Addressing vacuum leaks caused by hose deterioration
- Correcting fitment issues from an incorrect previous repair
