I need to get some advice on what the difference is on these two part numbers:

61 35 6 927 276
61 35 6 927 278

They look identical and yet there has to be a difference. I checked realoem.com and the bmw ETK cd. Worthless. Anyone?????!!!


PLEASE I REALLY NEED SOME ONE TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS SO DON'T TELL ME THE DIFFERENCE IS 2.

Both are seat modules. It appears that the one ending in 276 is no longer a valid part number. The one ending in 278 has been superseded by the same part number ending in 318. Not sure if that helps or further confuses the issue.

Not at all. I just need to make sure that the part ending in 318 is in fact what I would use to replace a faulty one ending in 278.

That is how I interpreted it--the 278 part is superseded by the 318 part.

I'd ask your dealer's parts department.
