A used ac compressor that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The BMW i4 launched in 2022 and is currently in its first generation, so a 2022 and a 2024 unit share the same generation platform; however, whether the compressor from an earlier car crosses directly to a later one depends on the exact drive unit and motor configuration, so confirm the interchange with the breaker against both registration numbers before buying.
The i4 eDrive40 is a single-motor rear-drive car while the i4 M50 is a dual-motor all-wheel-drive variant, and these different drivetrain configurations can mean different compressor specifications; trim level alone does not affect compressor fitment, but the underlying powertrain does, so tell the breaker which model you have and let them cross-reference the part against your VIN.
Year does matter within a generation because BMW can make running production changes to ancillary components like AC compressors without a formal facelift announcement; the most reliable way to get the right part is to give the breaker your full registration so they can run a VIN check and match the exact specification built for your car.
The i4 is offered with different battery and motor outputs across the range, and these differences can affect the refrigerant compressor specification since electric vehicle AC compressors are driven electrically and are matched to the car's high-voltage system; always confirm with the breaker that the donor car's motor and battery configuration matches yours before purchasing a used unit.
No, the side of the car the donor vehicle was damaged on makes no difference to AC compressor fitment, as the compressor is a centrally mounted mechanical component; what matters is that the donor car's drivetrain specification matches yours, so focus on confirming that with the breaker rather than worrying about which side was damaged.
Electric vehicle AC compressors can in some cases involve electronic control modules that may require configuration to the receiving car, and this is something you should confirm with the breaker and your fitting garage before buying; we cannot state as fact how BMW handles ECU pairing or immobiliser coding for this component, so raise it explicitly when you get your quotes.
