I have searched the realOEM for an hour and can't find the part number for the exhaust vanos solenoid wire clip. Mine broke when I replaced the Throttle Actuator. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Otherwise, this is the closest bet. You’ll have to measure accordingly:

I have found the part# 12517831757 . BMW's illustration doesn't look like the actual clip.

The part I found is not the same clip but close enough (little bigger) and dealer had to order it from Germany!
