I designed this valve shim placement tool to aid in my recent valve adjustment on my 2004 BMW E46 M3. After viewing the picture of this special tool online, I decided it wasn't worth the money to order one, so I purchased some magnets and printed one instead. The magnet I used is a 8mm(0.315") Diameter x 3mm(0.118") Height, and was embedded into the base during the printing stage. I used the color change feature of PrusaSlicer to stop the print before the top layer and inserted the magnet. I printed both parts out of PETG and glued them together with cyanoacrylate. The tool was tested on my engine and worked perfectly. I even did the hard to reach rear valves with this homemade tool. Use the specified automotive-grade material, keep the tool square and inspect the serviced component before reassembly.

The carpeted panel on the interior of the E46 touring hatch is tricky to remove, and often the retaining clips are broken. I have created these two clips which can be epoxied in place to return normal function. In order to use them, completely cut the broken part of the clips out as shown in the photo then, use an epoxy like JB Weld liberally - the holes provide a mechanical bond for the epoxy. Note there are a right and a left. I did not create the center clip. Use cabin-heat-resistant material, dry-fit the part and confirm secure retention and unobstructed operation.

This is a remixed version of the original thing posted here on Thingiverse, which is a shift boot bracket for the BMW E46 3 Series. It has better strength as with the added fillets and the clips are thickened as well as enlarged for better fitment. It will fit both RHD and LHD BMW E46 and will provide tight fitment. If you are planning to install with thick Alcantara leather boot, then it will be wise to scale it down a bit to 96-97% scale but if you are just planning to use faux leather boot, then at 100% scale it will be just fine. Use custom support blockers to increase the infill density of the clips to 99% for added strength.

Isofix cover for BMW E46 I was missing one of the isofix covers so I modeled and printed this one. It's not a perfect copy since I added a bit of thickness in some parts to make it stronger. You can see in one of the images the differences between the original and the 3d printed part. For this one the ABS filament is required since the PETG & PLA are not rigid enough. Added a magnetic version, magnet can be glued in place, 20 x 10 x 3 mm magnet size. This alleviates the need to print the part in ABS for strength. Print Settings Printer: TwoTrees Bluer Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 Filament: Generic ABS Black Notes: Category: Automotive Confirm seat movement, belt access and occupant clearance before use.

So I broke my wiper clip while replacing some other stuff on the car. There's not really a viable/economical replacement and original part does not take well to super glue.

Print a cheap replacement for OEM E46 sun visor clips. I recommend printing at 100% infill to prevent splitting at layers when installed.

Alternatives may include PA CF12 or PP. Print slow. Low to no fan. The chamber should be at least 40°C for best layer adhesion. Works best with 100% infill. Sadly I could not find the specific part number for this, I've heard a simple washer should do just as well. However, I'd like to keep it as original as possible with this, as it also helps with alignment. Use exterior-rated material and verify secure retention, sealing and adjacent-panel clearance.

This bracket allows to mount the Pioneer GM-D1004 amp in place of the factory amp in the trunk. I used PETG and it works fine.

Adjustable clutch-pedal stop body for manual-transmission BMW E28 and other listed classic BMW chassis. Assembly requires an M10 screw, two M10 nuts, a 40 mm washer and a genuine-style rubber cap. Adjust only far enough to remove excess pedal travel while preserving complete clutch disengagement, then lock the nuts securely and re-check operation before driving.

Four clip-in replacement gear-knob shapes for the BMW E34 and the creator-listed classic BMW chassis. The design was developed around the common BMW latching stem and includes an installed physical example. Confirm the lever's clip profile and preserve full shift travel before driving; the grouped API fitments reproduce only chassis families explicitly listed by the creator.

Battery-retaining spacer reproduced from BMW component 61211350825 for E30, E34, E39 and E46. BMWFans identifies it as spacer 1350825 and confirms those chassis among broader BMW usage. Match battery size, tray slot and hold-down engagement, and do not use it to compensate for an incorrect battery or damaged clamp.

Update: Few of those broke using PLA 0.8 width, infill 10-25%. I suggest you print with 3 layers width (or more?). I will do a redesign to fix the weak point from printing prescriptive. This is my design for BMW floor mat holder (E36 E46 E38 E39) . Top part fits nice and works like a charm. I would say it even holds better than original one. As for the washer (bottom one) I haven't got it in real life so I've designed whatever I thought was suitable. Tested with PLA. Lay it down to print upside down. For now tests are held only in V1 version. Version 1: - Design created. Printed with CURA supports Version 2: - Added supports included in file. Gap is 0.15mm - Redesign of top part "head" - Added washer BMW part number (exemplary) 51478116564 51478183027 51478183028 51478183029 51471881521 Only the creator-tested V1 fastener is retained; the untested V2 washer and supported variant are excluded. Verify dimensions against the original part and confirm full operation before regular use.

Service wrench for the notched BMW fuel-tank screw cap used on E46, E60/E61, E63/E64, E65–E68, E83 and E53 vehicles. The creator tested the same interface on an R53 MINI and identified BMW screw cap 16116762417; BMW catalog cross-reference independently confirms that cap across the listed BMW chassis. The printed wrench is not the screw cap itself, so no OEM number is assigned. Use a stiff engineering polymer, hand tools only, and replace rather than reuse any visibly damaged print.

Clip-on cargo hook for the rear load-area rail, physically shown installed and documented by the creator as used reliably for more than a year. The creator directly lists X3 E83, 3 Series E46, X5 E53 and 5 Series E39 compatibility, so all four live generations are linked. This is an accessory rather than a reproduction of a BMW service part. Print in PETG as documented, observe sensible load limits, and confirm it cannot obstruct the rear seat or cargo cover.
