Product Description

The Arrowhead Oil Separator is an essential ENGINE OIL SEPARATOR designed specifically for BMW models. This component plays a crucial role in separating oil vapours from the crankcase gases, helping to prevent oil from entering the intake system and ensuring optimal engine performance. Constructed from durable plastic with multiple hose ports and mounting points, it is engineered to fit seamlessly into the engine bay.

This oil separator is compatible with select BMW vehicles, including those equipped with M62 engines commonly found in the X5 E53 4.4i and 4.6is models produced between 2000 and 2006. Always confirm your BMW’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to guarantee correct fitment.

Common symptoms of a faulty oil separator include increased oil consumption, blue smoke from the exhaust, rough idling, loss of engine power, oil leaks around the engine, a strong smell of burning oil, and even check engine lights related to crankcase ventilation issues. If you notice any of these warning signs, your oil separator may need replacing.

Replacing the oil separator is important when you notice symptoms of failure or during scheduled maintenance, particularly on high-mileage engines. Addressing issues early can prevent more serious engine problems and costly repairs.
