I can confirm that it is threaded into the valve/regulator assy.  I've
heard for years that a BMW part can be used, but since I haven't had 
the need I haven't actually tracked it down myself.  I know of someone
who has told me that he has a BMW part installed on his QTC, but he 
could not get me the part number.  Do you happen to know a part number 
for a BMW PA to try?  I'd really like to put this to bed at some point.
BTW, are you sure that you must replace the PA and valves on your car?
