Has anyone replaced the fuel tank straps? I understood the fuel tank to be suspended on 2 straps that can be seen from underneath, with foam pads trapped between the straps and the tank (which often fall out or disintegrate).
I went to BMW to order the two straps as they're quite rusty on mine, and one of them is on backorder with no delivery date (16111185032 "tension strap"). So I ordered gthe only one they could get (16111185025) which was called a "support".
Realoem only shows these two part numbers with 1 of each fitted to the car. I just assumed one for each side of the tank (despite the different descriptions).
However, I went under the car before and the part I have looks like it's for the passenger side which is in two parts; the part I have is the upper part, but there is a second part of the strap that connects to it. There's also the driver's side strap, so I've not idea what the part numbers are for these??
