Original BMW Crankshaft Pulley Hub for BMW 530i, 740i, 740iL, 840Ci, and X5 (1993–2003)

Part 11-23-1-736-532 is the Original BMW crankshaft pulley hub used on M60 and M62 engines in the 1993–2003 BMW 530i, 740i, 740iL, 840Ci, and X5 4.4i and 4.6is. BMW names it simply the hub. It weighs 530 g (1.2 lb), comes as a single piece, and is a Genuine BMW part made in Germany.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

BMW has made this hub under the same number since December 1991 and shows no supersession for it, so the first M60 cars and the last M62 X5 use the identical part. BMW's parts data assigns it to the M60 engine in the E34 530i and the E32 740iL, and to the M62 engine in the E38 740i and 740iL, the E31 840Ci, and the E53 X5 4.4i and 4.6is. A 740iL from 1993 and one from 2001 sit on different chassis and engines, yet both take this hub.

Common Questions

Is this hub the harmonic balancer?
BMW lists this part simply as a hub. A harmonic balancer is often integrated with the crankshaft pulley.

What signs point to a problem with the crankshaft pulley assembly?
A damaged or failing pulley can cause excessive engine vibration, particularly at higher rpm. It can also cause visible belt misalignment that wears the belt early, and reduced or intermittent power to the belt-driven accessories.

Should the fasteners be replaced too?
When the harmonic balancer or front crankshaft pulley is replaced, replace the related fasteners at the same time.
