Original BMW Windshield Washer Fluid Reservoir for BMW E46 M3 Coupe and Convertible (2001–2006)

For the E46 M3, BMW part 61-67-7-895-571 is the Original BMW windshield washer fluid reservoir, the plastic tank under the hood that stores the washer fluid sent to the windshield nozzles. BMW names it the windshield cleaning container, and it weighs 643 grams. The reservoir supplies the washer pump, which pushes fluid through tubing to the nozzles. This version is for cars without the headlight cleaning system, which BMW codes as option S502A. It is made in Germany and fits in place of the factory tank.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

This number entered production in September 2001 and replaced the earlier reservoir 61-67-7-892-702. BMW marks the change as non exchangeable retrospectively, so treat the two numbers as separate parts. The headlight cleaning option matters most when you choose. Cars equipped with S502A need a different reservoir, so check your option codes before you order. A leaking tank makes a mess of the engine bay. Look for cracks or punctures, and watch for a reservoir that empties faster than normal even after refilling.
