Review on Replacement Left Lid Tailgate Return Spring for F10 F10N BMW 550i 528i 535i M5 - Part No. 51247204366 by Bart Elbrink

Works perfectly. Just remove the metal pin first!

Works great. Seen YouTube videos showing how to change the spring. First make sure you remove the metal pin from the ball end. Otherwise it doesn't fit. Didn't notice and spent 30 minutes assembling the ball end. Then I saw some reviews here that mentioned a metal pin. Once the pin was removed it was easy to click. The best repair for less than $50 for your BMW F10. The dealer asked for $500 to fix it!

Pros
  • Accessories
Cons
