Product Description

The oil filter housing gasket is a crucial component in your BMW's engine, ensuring a tight seal between the oil filter housing and the engine block. This gasket helps prevent oil leaks and maintains the correct oil pressure, which is essential for proper engine lubrication. Over time, exposure to heat and oil can cause the gasket to harden, crack, or lose its sealing ability.

This gasket is designed specifically for BMW models, including the F20 and F21 116i, 118i, 120i, and the F30 and F31 316i with the N13 engine, produced between 2011 and 2019. Always confirm your BMW's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure compatibility.

Common symptoms of a failing oil filter housing gasket include visible oil leaks around the oil filter housing, low oil levels, oil stains under the vehicle, and sometimes a burning oil smell from the engine bay. You may also notice the oil warning light on your dashboard or a decrease in engine performance due to insufficient lubrication.

If you notice any of these symptoms or are performing scheduled maintenance, it is advisable to replace the oil filter housing gasket to prevent further engine damage. Always replace the gasket when servicing the oil filter housing to maintain a proper seal and avoid leaks.
