Used window motors vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
No — the E63 (2003–2010) and F12 (2011–2018) are completely different generations with different door structures, so their window motors are not interchangeable. Always quote your registration to the breaker so they can pull the correct unit for your generation.
Yes, generation matters most — the E63/E64 ran from 2003 to 2010 and the F12/F13/F06 from 2011 to 2018, and parts between these generations do not cross over. Within a generation there may also be detail changes, so give the breaker your full registration to confirm the exact match.
Yes, this is critical — NS (nearside, passenger side, left) and OS (offside, driver side, right) motors are handed and are not interchangeable. Always specify which door the faulty motor is in when requesting a quote.
Trim level — whether it is a standard 6 Series, M Sport, or M6 — does not affect window motor fitment, as the door and regulator structure is the same across trims within the same generation and body style. The motor is determined by generation, body style, and which side the door is on, not by trim.
No — the F13 Coupe, F12 Convertible, and F06 Gran Coupe are distinct body styles within the same generation and their door structures differ, meaning their window motors are specific to each body style. Make sure the breaker knows both the generation and the exact body style (Coupe, Convertible, or Gran Coupe) when you enquire.
2010 falls at the end of the E63/E64 generation, while 2011 is the start of the F12/F13 generation, so these are different generations and the motors are very unlikely to be compatible. Confirm the exact body style and registration with the breaker before purchasing, as crossing this generation boundary is a common source of ordering errors.
