Is there an "E" for the 2002?

[ANDRÜ]

I just got a '72 2002, and im looking for stuff I need. Whenever I search for "2002" in conjunction with bmw, alot of bmws from the year 2002 show up, not a bmw 2002. Does the 2002 have an "E"? I cant even find this!

Yep

I have seen some online part stores call the 2002 a "e6" and one other one call it and "e10". I'm not quite sure when BMW came up with there e designations. I started hearing the e designation "BS" in the late 80's or early 90's when they started the new variations of the 3 series.

e10.

E6 is the '02 touring.

[Puddles]

definitely e10

all you have to do is google "BMW body codes" and it should be the first hit. Got em' all.

There seems to be alot if variation on the earlier models...

From what I knew the 2002s actually used a 3 digit #114 this would apply to all 1602s and 2002s except for the 2002 Turbo, the turbo is either a e10 or e20?

E6 is used for the tourings (16 and 20)

Other variations have the tii and Turbo as a E20, the Touring as the E10, etc.

I believe the "B" were used by alpina - i know the B12 is alpinas 850csi

No hes talking about the M20B27 (E30 eta engine), the M20B25 (E30 i engine)the number after the B is the displacement. Like the S50B30 or the S50B32 is the 3.0 liter US E36 ///M3 engine and the 3.2L version. One more example would be the S54B32. Alpina does also have the B designation but thats the external nomenclature. Like the B10 Bi-turbo, B7S Turbo, B3 3.3, B12, etc.
