The part is built to the following specification: Timing Chain Size: G53HS, Supplementary Article/Supplementary Info: 825, Supplementary Article/Supplementary Info: 251, Supplementary Article/Supplementary Info: 253, Supplementary Article/Supplementary Info: 881. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with BMW, MINI vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 107254, 1131 7 797 897, 1131 7 797 899, 1131 7 797 901 and 11 more. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function.
