Are you talking about the flexdisc/guibo? I haven't a clue on what you're referring to.

I think he's talking about #2 in this diagram:

RealOEM.com * BMW E60 545i GS6-53BZ/DZ Drive-/Output shaft

It's 30mm on my E30, but I wish I could be of more help. I have no idea what it is on E60.

ok just before the guibo. I have no idea what it is. Just go to napa and get the socket. They have whatever you need. That's how i picked up the socket for my oil filter cap long time ago.
