I was ordering LSD and they told me there is one in stock matching for 545iA however they asked me for some numbers of the FD Housing ??? I don't know how to find these numbers?????
mhs525, I know you have auto with LSD installed. did they ask for FD housing?

Ask Dan (Diffsonline) where the number can be found. I would go look at my car but I am under strict orders not to put any stress on my back even though I had the Fuc**** surgery three months ago so I COULD play with my car (rant sorry...)
Crawl under the car and take a look at your rear end... They will know if you have the right numbers or not...

Dumb question couldnt find an answer.
Does the Quaife work on SMG's?
And do you think a BMW dealership could install this?

Dealer - If they still have anyone who knows how to set up a rear differential. It takes a lot of know how and skill and has nothing to do with computers.
Option, any dealer can remove your rear end housing, ship it to an authorized Quaife installer who rebuilds the rear end with the Quaife, they ship it back for installation back in the car. That?s how mine was done but I used Turner Motorsport who used Diffsonline, both close to me so the shipping wasn't bad but my car was down for a 4 days.
