Hello,

I have an e61 535xi. I am looking at this OEM BMW short shifter (part #25117546373). You can see it here: https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-1...46-5117546373/
I believe this is a very popular upgrade for the e39 and e46, but it originates from the e60 and is shorter than OEM.

I am hoping to get it as part of this set: https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-3...-knob-6-speed/

However, I reached out to the vendor and they are telling me this won't fit the AWD version.
Can anyone confirm fitment? I would really appreciate it.

 

Have you looked at realoem to see if any of the part numbers for shifter parts are different on the xDrive cars vs. without? I installed the ZHP knob in my E61 and called it a day, it lowered the knob enough for me. I did the E60 545 shifter "upgrade" in my E46 (first time to ever use a short shifter) and I don't see the benefit personally. My wife dislikes how much harder you have to press the shifter to get into gear. If it simply didn't stick the knob up as high I would be happy with it, but the change in throw (shorter part under the ball socket) makes it less comfortable for shifting in my opinion.
