How can you check whether the B72961405 throttle body fits your car?

This is a used, working throttle body with part numbers B72961405 and 780438401, for: BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI, E65/E66, X3 E83, X5 E53, X5 E70, X6 E71 (engines: 2.0 d M47N2 / 3.0 d M57N2). To confirm the fit, compare the number with the label on the throttle body in your car.

Throttle Body B72961405 780438401 – BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI

The B72961405 throttle body works in a diesel engine: it shuts off the air supply when the engine is stopped to limit shaking, and in many engines it also assists EGR control. According to the product data, it fits: BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI, E65/E66, X3 E83, X5 E53, X5 E70, X6 E71; engines: 2.0 d M47N2 / 3.0 d M57N2.

Choosing by part number

  • B72961405 – also printed as B7 296 1405
  • 780438401 – also printed as 7 804 384 01

The label on the throttle body fitted to your car should show the number B72961405 or 780438401. Knowing only the model (BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI, E65/E66, X3 E83, X5 E53, X5 E70, X6 E71) is not enough to choose the part: different throttle body versions were used in the same cars.

Common throttle body faults

When the throttle body in a BMW starts to fail, the most common signs are:

  • soot from the EGR system on the flap – sticking flap, fault codes stored in the engine control unit,
  • failed motor or position sensor – engine warning light, limp mode,
  • flap not closing fully – the engine may shake when switched off.

If cleaning does not help and diagnostics point to a throttle body or position sensor fault, replacement with a part carrying the same number is usually required. After fitting, many cars need an adaptation according to the vehicle manufacturer's procedure.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check that the B72961405 throttle body fits my car?
Compare the number B72961405 or 780438401 with the label of the throttle body fitted to your car (BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI, E65/E66, X3 E83, X5 E53, X5 E70, X6 E71).
Which engines does the B72961405 throttle body fit?
According to the product data, it fits 2.0 d M47N2 / 3.0 d M57N2 engines in: BMW E87, E90/E91/E92/E93, E60/E61, E63/E64 LCI, E65/E66, X3 E83, X5 E53, X5 E70, X6 E71.
Does the throttle body need to be adapted (relearned) after replacement?
In many cars, yes: after fitting, the engine control unit learns the end positions of the throttle. This is done with a diagnostic tool or by following the procedure described by the car manufacturer.
What condition is this throttle body in?
It is a used, working unit in good condition. The warranty is listed in the product specification table.
