{"product_id":"oil-filter-housing-7","title":"Oil Filter Housing","description":"The BMW Engine Oil Filter Housing is a genuine OEM replacement part for 2001-2008 BMW models equipped with the 3.2L S54 engine, including the M3, Z3 M, and Z4 M. This complete assembly includes the oil filter housing gasket and comes with the oil filter pre-installed. Over time, the oil filter housing can fail due to age, heat, or improper tool usage, leading to internal leaks that can affect the entire lubrication system. A failing housing can manifest as cracking or leaking.\n\nA malfunctioning check valve within the oil filter housing can also cause issues, such as a timing chain tensioner rattle at cold start due to a loss of oil pressure. Replacing the housing can resolve this specific symptom. Note that while this housing includes the main gasket and filter, it does not come with the round gaskets for the oil cooler lines; these must be purchased separately. Additionally, you may need to swap over your existing tensioner pulley assembly, oil pressure sensor, and a metal plug located next to the oil pressure sensor.\n\nGenuine BMW parts are manufactured to BMW's stringent standards, ensuring the same quality as the original parts used in their \"Ultimate Driving Machines.\" This part is made in Austria and directly replaces BMW part numbers 11421318401, 11421404206, and 11427833240.","brand":"BMW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687143371064,"sku":"11427839858","price":133.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/661171149.jpg?v=1784880812","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/oil-filter-housing-7","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
