Product Description

This Arrowhead gasket oil filter housing is designed specifically for BMW vehicles, ensuring a proper seal between the oil filter housing and the engine block. A well-fitted gasket is essential for maintaining oil pressure and preventing leaks, which can lead to engine damage if left unchecked. This part features a multi-chambered, irregular shape to match the contours of the oil filter housing used in various BMW petrol models.

Compatibility is limited to BMW models, so it is crucial to confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing your order. This gasket is commonly used in several BMW series, including E36, E46, E34, E39, E60, E38, E65, E83, E53, E85, and E86 petrol variants. If you are unsure about fitment, please contact MiMi Auto Parts for assistance.

Common symptoms of a failing oil filter housing gasket include oil leaks around the filter housing, low oil levels, visible oil residue on the engine, oil pressure warning lights, and a burning oil smell. You may also notice oil stains under your vehicle or increased oil consumption. These signs indicate the gasket may no longer be sealing effectively.

Replacing a worn or damaged oil filter housing gasket is important to prevent oil leaks and potential engine damage. If you observe any of the symptoms listed or are performing routine maintenance, consider replacing this gasket to ensure a reliable seal.
