Used turbos 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:
The BMW M4 first generation (F82/F83) ran from 2014 to 2020, and the second generation (G82/G83) launched in 2021, so turbos are not interchangeable across that boundary. Within the F82 generation, fitment is governed primarily by the engine code – the S55 straight-six is the unit to match – and a turbo from a 2015 car should suit a 2018 car if the engine codes align, but confirm any ancillary or mounting differences with the breaker against your registration. The G82 uses the S58 engine, which is a completely different unit requiring its own turbo.
This question spans the F82-to-G82 generation boundary: the 2019 car is a late F82 with the S55 engine, while the 2021 car is a G82 with the S58 engine, and these turbos are not interchangeable. Always quote both your registration and engine code to the breaker so they can confirm the correct unit for your car.
Yes – engine code is the most reliable guide for a mechanical part like a turbo, and the BMW M4 has used distinct engines across its generations (S55 in the F82, S58 in the G82), so a turbo matched to the right code is far safer than matching by year alone. You can find your engine code on your V5C or by running a VIN check, and supplying it to the breaker will give you the most accurate quote.
For the turbo itself, the Competition and standard M4 share the same engine code within each generation, so the trim level does not affect which turbo you need. Bear in mind you may receive a turbo that was fitted to a different specification car, but that has no bearing on mechanical fitment – confirm the engine code matches and let the breaker cross-reference against your registration.
There is no diesel BMW M4 – the M4 has only been offered with petrol engines across both the F82 and G82 generations, so fuel type is not a variable to worry about here. Focus instead on matching the engine code (S55 for F82, S58 for G82) and confirm the specific part with the breaker against your registration.
Whether a used turbo requires any ECU pairing or immobiliser coding when fitted to your car is something you should confirm with the breaker or your fitting garage against your specific registration, as this can vary and is not something we can state as fact. A good breaker will be familiar with any coding requirements for the M4 turbo and can advise before you commit to buying.
