Product Description

The Arrowhead Oil Filter Housing is a crucial component within the engine oil system of selected BMW models. This housing securely holds the oil filter in place and ensures a leak-free seal, allowing the engine oil to be properly filtered as it circulates through the engine. Constructed from durable materials, it is designed to withstand the high temperatures and pressures found in BMW engines.

This part is compatible with a range of BMW vehicles. However, compatibility can vary depending on the specific model, year, engine size, and engine code. Always double-check your vehicle details to ensure correct fitment before ordering.

Common symptoms of a faulty oil filter housing include oil leaks around the filter area, low oil pressure warnings, visible cracks or damage to the housing, contaminated oil, and oil stains under the vehicle. You may also notice increased engine noise or a burning oil smell if the housing is compromised.

If you observe any of these symptoms or are performing routine engine maintenance, it is advisable to inspect and, if necessary, replace the oil filter housing. Timely replacement helps prevent oil leaks and potential engine damage due to improper oil filtration or loss of oil pressure.
