This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 31352413611 (31 35 2 413 611) and is described as a hardware and mount kit for a front strut replacement on E70 X5 and E71 X6 with the optional Adaptive Drive suspension (option code 2VA). This is the perfect complement to any new front strut replacement as it includes nearly all of the hardware that can be replaced* along with a new Genuine BMW strut mount.
Do I need new hardware? Yes… The factory BMW torque spec for these bolts is to tighten to a specific torque value and then tighten an additional specific amount. The additional tightening will stretch the bolt and help ensure it does not become loose. Unfortunately, the stretch means the bolt is 1-time use and it will not take another tightening without compromising its strength. These bolts will likely fail if re-used!
