    Brake Master Cylinder NLA?

    FYI tried ordering Brake Master Cylinder from FCP and direct from BMW Dealer both cancelled my order as “Backorder with no ETA”.

    Seems like a pretty critical part to be NLA. I was able to find one in stock at Bimmerworld
    though.

    I hope ATE makes more. Or starts selling them in the aftermarket.

    I was quite surprised at the lack of ATE non-OE branded options for the (late) M3 master cylinder. Still, have also seen some sort of aftermarket unit on Australian eBay, but can't tell whether that was remanufactured OE parts

      I spoke with BMW about this the other day. Germany will not see them until mid June. If you need I *may* have an extra one I can sell you with 88k miles on it.

        Good to know. Wonder how hard it would be to rebuild these.

          It is plastic body so cylinder doesn’t rust, and rebuild should be easy if the rubber seals kit is available.

            I got the rubber seals from a German seller with no issues (apart from shipping being more than the seals).
            Didn't realise the cylinder was plastic, that would help as a low mileage MC casing I handled started to show rust spots

                  No. I was Talking about rebuilding the internal seals. Like you would for a brake caliper.
