The battery cable carries the high current between the battery and the starter and charging system on the BMW 320i. This one is 12V, 4 to 6 AWG, with ring or clamp terminals, sold used and inspected before it ships. A worn or corroded cable causes voltage drop, hard starting, and heat at the connections. Two things to confirm. First, generation: the US 320i is the E21 (1977 to 1983) and the F30 (2013 to 2018), with a long gap between, and the cable differs greatly between them in length, routing, and terminals. Confirm which generation you have by VIN. Second, material: for a high-current battery cable, pure copper is preferred over copper-clad aluminum, so confirm the material.
