What to know before swapping
Right-hand drive (RHD) markets may utilize different internal mounting brackets; verify part number suffixes for LHD vs RHD
Vehicles equipped with split-folding center armrest (SA465) or rear refrigerator (SA893) use distinct part numbers with modified hinge geometry
Interior color codes (LCSW Black, LCSX Oyster, etc.) must match for cosmetic compatibility though mechanical fit is universal

BMW F10 5-Series center console armrest assemblies interchange across 2011-2016 model years regardless of N52B30 or N20 engine specification. The primary OEM number 51169206347 supersedes earlier 51169175353 and fits all F10 sedans and F11 Touring variants. Junkyard hunters should test the sliding latch mechanism and inspect leather for cracking at the hinge crease. Installation requires removing the rear center console trim (two T20 Torx screws), sliding the assembly forward to release from chassis rails, and disconnecting any USB/AUX wiring harnesses. Common failures include brittle plastic latch tabs that snap after repeated use and delaminating foam padding. Consider sourcing from 535i or 550i donors which typically feature higher-grade Novillo leather upholstery matching the 528i interior architecture.
