Second Hand BMW i7 Coil Spring

The BMW i7 (G70, launched 2023) uses air suspension as standard across the range, meaning it does not use conventional coil springs at the front or rear. If you are looking for a replacement spring-type component, what you actually need is an air spring (air bag/bellow) rather than a coil spring. Ask a breaker specifically for an i7 air suspension component and confirm the axle position you need.

The i7 G70 is a distinct platform built specifically for the electric drivetrain and uses air suspension, so coil springs from the G11/G12 7 Series or G30/G31 5 Series are not a like-for-like replacement for any part of the i7's suspension system. Those earlier cars did use coil springs on some variants, but the components and mounting points are not shared with the i7. You would need to source the correct air suspension parts designed for the G70 platform.

Because the i7 uses air suspension rather than coil springs, the part you are most likely looking for is a front air spring or air strut assembly, not a coil spring. When contacting a breaker, quote your registration so they can confirm the exact air suspension variant fitted to your car, as spring/damper rate configurations and any sport suspension differences should be confirmed against your specific VIN. Never assume a generic description will match your vehicle's setup.

The drivetrain variant does matter for the i7, but not in the way trim usually does - all i7 models use air suspension rather than coil springs regardless of trim level, so there is no coil spring to source for any variant. However, when sourcing air suspension components, confirm with the breaker whether the part came from an eDrive50 (rear-wheel drive) or an xDrive60/M70 (four-wheel drive) car, as the front and rear suspension assemblies may differ between drivetrain layouts. Always confirm against your registration.

Genuine coil springs are not a standard fitment on the BMW i7 G70, which uses air suspension throughout the range, so a listing described simply as a coil spring from an i7 should be treated with caution. It is possible the listing is misdescribed and the part is actually an air spring or strut component, or it could relate to a minor secondary spring used within a suspension assembly. Contact the breaker directly to clarify exactly what the component is before purchasing.
