Are the front lower control arm bushings for an E36 interchangeable with those in an AWD E36? They look the same. Has anyone compared them? I ask because my sons car (2002 325xi) needs a set and I don’t want to spend more than a hundred dollars replacing them. All you engineers buzz off I’m talking to actual mechanics here.

Hi B

Welcome to the Forum

You can check compatability by looking at www.realoem.com it is a BMW online parts list. You can look up stuff by either putting the Vin's last 7 digits in the Search box it will call up the model or working through each block to confirm the model then look in the front axel section, double click the part number it will give you a list of other models it was used on.

Meyle and Lemforder were OEM in Europe and a complete control arm set (2) is about $100 so bushes should be cheaper. Possibly find a Poly bush kit?
