This info is a bit wrong, because both automatic versions have 3.38:1 rear diff (545i has 3.77, 550i has 2.93), but i think the housing is the same, and since quaife doesnt affect final gear, this should be the right one. I checked my invoice, and the product code is the same.
also I found a new distributor for Quaife LSD thanks to Kevin from birdsauto.com .... Again in California! Lucky Californians!!!!

Ask for Tony or Harold if you are interested.

Oh, Kevin hasn't mentioned me for other suppliers and just mentioned hpautowerks.com Thanks to share!
Rizbel, are you ordering one?

It's on my wish list. If you're getting one before me, let us know how it goes. Good luck.
