BMW Seat diagram for M6, 640i, 650i, 650i xDrive, 640i xDrive

The seat armrest is an interior comfort feature designed to provide support for the driver’s or passenger’s arm during travel. Mounted to the seat frame or console, it improves ergonomics and reduces fatigue on longer drives. Many armrests also include storage compartments, cup holders, or integrated controls depending on vehicle design. Constructed from durable materials with foam padding and upholstery finishes, the armrest combines comfort, style, and functionality for a better driving experience.

• Loose or wobbly armrest – caused by worn hinges, mounts, or internal mechanisms.
• Torn, cracked, or worn upholstery – reduces comfort and appearance.
• Broken latch, hinge, or storage function – limits usability and secure positioning.

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
