BMW supersede part numbers all the time. 11 11 1 460 389 is now 11 11 7 666 186.
Hint: using the
www.realoem.com link Gorio sent, click on the blue highlighted part number to the right of the description in the parts illustration/diagramme. It will show what the part fits and what the number used to be and many others if it has changed over the years.
Also, from the main page of realoem, after you've got to the BMW section, type in the last seven digits of the part number and it'll go to the various catalogues of which models it fits, including if it is also a BMW car part - sometimes cheaper at an auto parts supply house.
This also applies to a bike's VIN. Type in the last seven digits in the appropriate spot and up come the production date and model specifics.
