BMW 3: Designation and identification
Designation of electrical machines
The electrical machine designation is used in the technical documentation for
clear identification of
the electrical machine. However, the identification of the electrical machine is
relevant for Service.
Identification of the electrical machine
The electrical machines have an identification to ensure clear identification
and classification. This
identification is also necessary for approval by government authorities. The
identification of the
electrical machines is equivalent to the identification of the combustion
engines. The serial number
of the electrical machine can be found under the electrical machine
identification on the electrical
machine. This consecutive number, in conjunction with the identification,
permits clear identification of
each individual electrical machine.


The identification of the electrical machine in a G20 PHEV is as follows:
GC1P25A.
Technical data

Installation location

G20 PHEV electrical machine installation location
- Electric Motor Electronics (EME)
- Circlip
- Lid at electrical machine
- Additional torsional vibration damper
- Separation clutch
- Electric motor
- Hollow shaft
- High-voltage battery unit
The hybrid components are integrated as individual components in the
transmission bell housing and
assume the installation space of the hydraulic torque converter in the
transmission housing.

Detection range
The detection capacity of the system and the
automatic braking capacity are limited.
Two-wheeled vehicles for instance might not be
detected.
Deceleration
The system does not decelerate in the following
situations:
For pedestrians or similarly slow-moving road
users.
For red tr
