Original BMW Crankshaft Position Sensor Reluctor for BMW 2 to 8 Series, X Models, Z4, and Mini Cooper (2014–2025)

The Original BMW crankshaft position sensor reluctor, part number 11-14-8-605-104, is the trigger ring the crankshaft position sensor reads so the engine control module knows where the crankshaft is, and it fits a broad range of 2014–2025 BMW models plus the Mini Cooper, Clubman, and Countryman. BMW names the part simply as a reluctor. The sensor converts the movement of the reluctor into an electrical signal for the control module, which relies on that signal to run the engine. The part weighs 85 g (0.2 lb) and is made in Germany.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

This reluctor replaced 11-14-7-797-492, and BMW classes the change as exchangeable retrospectively, so the newer part can go on cars that were built with the older number. The same reluctor is shared across a long run of four-cylinder and six-cylinder gasoline engines and several diesels. BMW's parts data shows it with the B46, B48, and B58 gasoline engines, the N47N diesel in the 328d, the N57N in the 535d and 740Ld xDrive, and the B57 in the 540d xDrive. The i8 appears with the B38X engine.

Common Questions

Is this the crankshaft position sensor itself?
No. This is the reluctor that the sensor reads. The sensor is a separate part.

Do the plug-in hybrid models use the same reluctor?
Yes. BMW's data shows this number on the B48X and B58X hybrid engines, which covers fitment models such as the 330e, 530e, 740e, and 745e.
