Product Description

The Arrowhead Oil Separator is a crucial ENGINE OIL SEPARATOR component designed for BMW vehicles, specifically models equipped with the M62 engine. This part plays a vital role in the crankcase ventilation system, helping to separate oil from blow-by gases before they are recirculated into the intake, thus maintaining optimal engine performance and reducing oil consumption.

This oil separator is compatible with selected BMW models, including the X5 E53 4.4i and 4.6is with the M62 engine. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before ordering.

Common symptoms of a faulty oil separator include increased oil consumption, visible oil leaks around the separator, rough idling, blue smoke from the exhaust, engine warning lights, and a noticeable drop in engine performance. You may also experience excessive pressure in the crankcase or a strong smell of burning oil.

Replacement is recommended if you notice any of these symptoms or during major engine servicing to prevent further damage. Timely replacement helps maintain proper crankcase ventilation and prevents costly engine repairs due to oil contamination or pressure build-up.
