{"product_id":"oil-pan-gasket-362","title":"Oil Pan Gasket","description":"Specifically engineered for the S65 V8 engine found in E90, E92, and E93 M3 models from 2008 to 2013, this metal gasket creates a crucial seal between the upper oil pan and the engine block. Over time, the original oil pan gasket can degrade due to age and heat, leading to oil seepage and leaks. Ignoring these leaks can result in low oil levels, potentially causing severe engine damage.\n\nThis gasket is manufactured in Germany to OE (Original Equipment) quality standards, ensuring it meets the stringent specifications set by BMW. As a genuine replacement part, it offers guaranteed fitment, performance, and longevity, incorporating the latest design revisions from the manufacturer.\n\nInstallation of this oil pan gasket is a one-time use item and is typically performed when the oil pan is removed for service, repair, or due to existing leaks. It is crucial to replace the gasket whenever the oil pan is disturbed to prevent future leaks. When replacing this gasket, it is also recommended to replace the oil pan bolts, as BMW specifies new bolts for this procedure. The relevant bolt part numbers are 07129905537, 07129905599, and 07129905600. Proper installation involves ensuring both the pan and engine block surfaces are clean, tightening the new gasket with recommended sealant, and torquing the bolts in the correct sequence and to the manufacturer's specifications to prevent warping and ensure a lasting seal.","brand":"Elring","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687935537464,"sku":"11137841085","price":42.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664196060.jpg?v=1784887742","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/oil-pan-gasket-362","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
