Original BMW Turn Signal Bulb Socket for E90 325i, 328i, 330i, and 335i incl. xi (2006–2008)

Made for BMW by Valeo, part 63-11-7-159-571 is the Original BMW turn indicator bulb socket for the E90-generation 325i, 328i, 330i, and 335i, including the xi all-wheel-drive versions. The socket holds the turn signal bulb in the light assembly and supplies the electrical contact that lights it when the signal is switched on. BMW's parts data calls it a bulb socket, turn indicator, and records a weight of 14 grams. Production began in November 2004, and this unit is made in Spain.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

A worn socket tends to show up in one of three ways. The turn signal works intermittently or not at all because of poor contact, the housing burns or melts from heat and electrical resistance, or corrosion and moisture make the bulb dim or flicker. BMW shows the same socket across the E90 sedan engines from the N52 and N53 through the N51 and N54, and it carries on into the E91 range. BMW's parts data shows no superseding number for it.
