BMW N45 engine
This page is a reverse index of the BimmerNews factory matrix: it shows the generations, bodies, models and markets in which the N45 family appears.
A shared family code does not mean an identical specification. Parts and service decisions require the complete engine suffix, production date, market and the individual car’s VIN.
