This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 32106858736 (32 10 6 858 736) and is described as the outer ball joint for the steering tie rod on F15 X5, F85 X5M, F16 X6, and F86 X6M models. This part is not for vehicles equipped with the optional Active Steering system (code S217A).
This is the
outer end of the tie rod only. The complete tie rod part number, inner and outer, is BMW #32106858735 (see link below). While you can replace just the outer ball joint, it's very likely the inner ball joint is worn and should be replaced as well.
This is an OEM X5/X6 tie rod end manufactured by Lemforder - the original supplier to BMW for this part, as well as many other steering and suspension components. As the OEM it meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. This part has a two year warranty.
