If there is a large amount of oil on the sides of the engine or if you can smell burning oil, chances are it's a bad valve cover gasket. The gasket fails and allows oil to seep down onto the side of the engine and other parts causing a mess and reducing the amount of oil in your engine. This replacement gasket from Elring is perfect to prevent any further oil leaks.

Includes everything needed to re-seal your engine's head.

Elring is one of the biggest OEM names in the manufacturing of high quality gaskets that are available for very affordable prices. Elring has supplied many automotive names for years with the gaskets that seal your car's components from day 1 so you can rest assured that these components will last for a long time to come!

Fits the following engines:
S52 3.2L

Discover the Cometic MLS Multi-Layer Steel Gasket

Experience excellence with one of the market's premier multi-layer-steel (MLS) gaskets. This gasket is engineered for long-lasting performance, making it a top choice for high-performance and stock replacement applications. With a thickness of .070" and an 87mm cylinder bore, it offers outstanding durability. What sets Cometic MLS gaskets apart is their ability to be installed dry, thanks to the sealant that forms a bond with dry surfaces.

MLS, which stands for Multi-Layer Steel, is comprised of three layers of stainless steel. The outer layers feature an embossed Viton-coated stainless steel that not only provides an exceptional seal but also exhibits excellent rebound characteristics and resistance to corrosion. These MLS head gaskets effectively reduce bore distortion and can withstand extreme cylinder pressures.

Most people will probably experience a head gasket failure at one point or another during vehicle ownership. The signs of a failed head gasket are easy to identify: Milky oil as the coolant mixes in, loss of performance, and sweet smelling, white smoke coming from your tailpipe. It usually happens when the engine is overheated or has a number of miles on it. Replace yours and get your engine running again.

This set of OEM gaskets covers everything you would want to replace when rebuilding the cylinder head on the S50US 3.0L engine. It includes the head gasket, valve cover gaskets, o-rings, seals, and other parts for doing a head job on the 1995 E36 M3.

This set of gaskets is a both a time and money saver. It includes all of the commonly replaced gaskets, seals, and o-rings when performing this overhaul. Having these on hand instead of chasing them down at the last minute will save you time, money, and frustration. With this area of the engine apart you're going to want or need to replace these items anyway to ensure it's free of fluid and vacuum leaks. This is especially important because some states have very strict emissions regulations and vacuum and oil leaks can lead to failed inspections tests. On newer cars this can also create issues in the on-board diagnostics system. Even if you're not pulling the head this set includes so many valuable parts you'll want to keep this on hand to use for spares.
