First off, sorry for not having a picture to help...

I'm looking for the part number to replace the plastic parking brake cable clips that hold the cable to the frame above the fuel tank. I've looked through the parts diagrams, but cannot for the life of me find those clips.

It is located on the car somewhere between item #11 in this diagram and where the cable goes through the floor:



I would expect it to be in this parts diagram, but with the Germans, who knows....

 

Its part of the cables. Cant get on its own. 11 is the nut that holds it. Clubman has a different part number for the cables Vs the R56 and others.

Updated we can get ATE ones which are oem. Comes with those brackets also. https://www.ecstuning.com/Mini-2012-...Parking_Brake/

 

Nope, its not that clip, which I think is why I can't find it...

I just found reference in the instructions! Item #1 in the following diagram:

I just can't seem to find the reference in the parts diagrams.

 

Oh, i thought you meant the metal mounts. Let me dig.

 

I remember doing it on my R52 and my R58. But i did not break those clips.

Those are on the fuel tank. Bonded to it. I dont think they come off. https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=16_0663

 

Hmmm.... That would explain why I can't find them. The clips on my car no longer hold the cables in place, so I thought I would see about replacing them. I guess I'll just have to deal with it.

 

Yep, new fuel tank or just zip tie them together i guess. Just be careful as the exhaust shield and heat is there below it.
