🚘 Windshield Washer Pump 1J5955651 with Grommet - Compatible with BMW E46 M3 M5 X3 X5 Z3 Z4 Z8 318i 323i 325i 328i 330i 528i 530i 740i 745i Audi A3 A4 A5 RS4 RS5 RS6 Review

Although the pump looks the same as the very expensive original Audi pump, the outlet is about 0.5mm smaller than the L-port. I had to cut the fitting and use a 4mm diameter silicone hose to connect the pump to the washer nozzle. Pump pressure and volume are sufficient.

Fits perfectly in my 2001 BMW 330ci Convertible. I'm a bit concerned about how well the pump will seal at the junction of the two plastic parts of the case, so I resealed it with liquid tape to prevent road grime or other unwanted liquids from getting in. Never understood why the pump comes with a cuff but no filter. Separately purchased filters come with the sleeve built in, so I don't need a sleeve in the kit, but that's not a problem.

Perfect fit. It's really nice that it comes with a new bushing - the bushing isn't as nice as the original BMW part but it works. Installation is easy. If you are using it to replace a motor with a plastic L connector, you will likely need to remove and discard it. With a new engine would not condense. only age.
