• BMW X3 E83.

Linkage Selection

Original linkage references: 61617045613, 61617051669, 61617071693 and 61618391303. Compare the original linkage and repair component mounting.

Kit Contents and Quantity

• 1 bushing.
• 1 nut.

Inspect the passenger-side linkage for wear. If bushings are needed on both sides, order two kits.

When to Inspect the Wiper Linkage

• Knocking or squeaking during wiper operation.
• Excessive linkage play.
• Wiper arms contacting the bonnet or each other.
• Poor screen wiping or stopping in the wrong position.

Wear can be apparent above 100 000 km; mileage alone does not establish the fault. Original plastic tips can wear against the metal shaft through water exposure and lack of lubrication. Diagnose the affected linkage before repair.

Repair Scope

This is the linkage repair bushing and nut, rather than a complete wiper linkage assembly. Compare original shape, dimensions and mounting.

Important Before Ordering

Compare the original part number, marking, shape and mounting design before ordering. A model name alone does not confirm the required version.
