Engine Grounding Cable Part Number?!?

[onutsguy]

Hey guys. Looking for someone to please confiwm a part number for me. Searching realoem, I got this part number. ( 12511714039 ) Here is the direct link - http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...55&hg=12&fg=31

However, the part it shows in the diagram looks wrong. The part in the diagram that matches up with this part number looks like a bracket, not the cable that I need.

Can anyone help a brother out?!?

Thanks!

it almost looks like you need #14 but its not listed for your car.

Actually I just purchase #14 in that diagram, from the dealership. I was actually looking for the ground cable that is located between the valve cover and the platform where the coolant reservoir is. #14 will not work, it is too big. Does anyone have that part#??

Scott, if you want part# 14 from the diagram, I'll sell it to you for $3, which is what I paid for it.

Valve cover= #3 (p/# 069)

Scott, which ground cable were you looking for? Where does it need to go?

LOL- I am looking for that one too :p Can't seem to find it anywhere! Probably a miss print in the ETK-

Anyone else know of the part number for this ground cable?

Actually I just called the BMW dealer to order the ground cable for the valve cover (65311286069). what the BMW mechanic told me is that the #14 cable in the original post, that was given to me, is the ground cable between the oil pan and the frame horn.
How valid is that I'm not sure, but if anyone wants it lmk, otherwise I'm returning it back, since I don't need it.
