Oem idrive control knob

Sookie123 · 03-26-2023, 07:09 PM

Hey guys, need to replace my cheap aftermarket knob that came with the vehicle. i have a 2013 BMW f30 335xi. I wanted to find an oem idrive control know but cant seem to find anything other than those cheap amazon/aliexpress ones that are larger.

Any ideas?

Are you shopping for it using the correct 11 digit BMW part nbr? And are you saying BMW doesn't sell them anymore if you prefer to not buy an aftermarket knock-off?

If you need the iDrive controller with the smaller knob (#1 in the diagram)...then there are two different part nbr depending on your build date. So shop for it using the correct 11 digit BMW part nbr (ie...google search using BMW xx xx x xxx xxx where x = the actual part nbrs)

just the knob itself, not the entire idrive control unit.

Do you have a picture of your aftermarket one. I was thinking of changing mine to one but if you have complaints then I’d rather avoid. Thanks.
