Powerflex PFF5-4630 Polyurethane Shifter/Shift Arm Front Mount Bush/Insert (Round) for BMW E46 3 Series Compact – Gear Selector/Lever Carrier Transmission Linkage Bushing Upgrade – Replaces OEM 25117519669

Powerflex PFF5-4630 Round Front Mount Bushing for BMW E46 3 Series Compact

Restore razor-sharp gear changes on your BMW E46 Compact with the Powerflex PFF5-4630 round front mounting insert for the gear lever carrier. This polyurethane upgrade replaces the tired factory rubber piece referenced by BMW part 25117519669 to tighten the transmission linkage and deliver a precise, confidence-inspiring shift every time.

If your E46 Compact suffers from vague gear engagement, excess play at the lever or a sloppy feel when pushing on, this front locator for the selector support is a proven fix. Built from durable polyurethane, it resists oil, heat and road grime far better than OE rubber and maintains geometry under load for consistent performance on road or track.

• Crisp, positive gear selection and reduced lever movement
• Improved linkage stability under acceleration, braking and cornering
• Long-lasting polyurethane construction that will not perish like rubber
• Enhances driver feedback without a harsh increase in NVH
• Backed by the Powerflex Lifetime Warranty

Why choose this upgrade

We have installed and run this bushing at MJ Modifications and our customers consistently report a tighter, more direct gear change with a noticeable reduction in slop. It is a simple, high-value drivetrain refinement that transforms the connection between driver and gearbox on the E46 3 Series Compact.
