Product Description

This SKP cap oil filter is designed for the engine oil filter screw on cap category, serving as a vital component for BMW engines. The cap securely seals the oil filter housing, ensuring proper oil filtration and preventing leaks during engine operation. Its durable plastic construction and hexagonal socket fitting make installation and removal straightforward with the correct socket tool.

This part is compatible with selected BMW models, including various E60, E61, E63, E64, E65, E66, E67, and X5 (E53, E70) series equipped with the N62 engine. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before purchase.

A worn or damaged oil filter cap can cause oil leaks, improper sealing, or difficulty maintaining oil pressure. Symptoms may include visible oil seepage around the filter housing, low oil pressure warnings, or difficulty removing the cap for oil changes.

Replace your oil filter cap if you notice cracking, warping, worn threads, or persistent oil leaks after filter changes. Always use the specified torque values when installing a new cap to avoid overtightening or undersealing.
