Introducing our newest upgrade for your E36: a full billet aluminum valve cover engineered to eliminate factory and aftermarket valve cover issues. If you're familiar with our new Turner Motorsport products for 2023 and 2024 you can tell that our engineering team at Turner has a focus on older chassis, especially the E36.
Our valve cover is designed to fit some of the best engines BMW ever came out with, single vanos M50/M52 and S50/S52. Not only are these great motors in general and deserve an upgraded valve cover but they are also prime for boosting. When adding boosting you will be introducing heat which can wreak havoc on your ignition system and make your factory valve cover extremely prone to failure.
The reality of the M5x/S5x motors is that the plastic valve covers are sub-par and the magnesium versions are no longer available from BMW and even those can even warp. You can end up replacing your valve cover time and time again dealing with issues if you prefer but the option is here for you. The last valve cover you buy for your E36.
Our engineers designed this valve cover with experience and personal passion that offers a plethora of benefits for your M5x/S5x motor. Whether you plan to cherish your E36 for years to come or envision a turbocharger upgrade, our valve cover is the ultimate solution. It boasts rugged durability and brilliant aesthetics, ensuring it's a perfect fit for any enthusiast.
Featuring full 6061 billet construction and a type-3 hard coat finish, our valve cover is built to endure extreme conditions and rigorous use. Whether you opt to retain your factory PCV setup or upgrade to a catch can for racing purposes, the cover provides dedicated, direct-fit ports for both configurations.
The base kit includes all the necessary components for a seamless installation. Additionally, the description provides part numbers for optional replacements and add-ons, ensuring you have everything you need to complete your install.
Features:
Integrated -10AN ORB ports for a catch can setup to keep your intake free from oil in racing applications
Compatible with factory M5x/S5x ignition coil packs
Compatible with Red Top "Smart Coils" (Audi R8) for standalone ECU applications

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 the following Seals:
Elring is one of the biggest OEM names in the manufacturing of high quality gaskets that are available for very affordable prices.

Maintaining optimal engine oil levels is crucial for peak performance in your BMW. Leaks can occur between oil change intervals, leading to dangerously low oil levels. The valve cover is a frequent culprit for such leaks due to gasket degradation from years of exposure to temperature fluctuations. Replace your valve cover to ensure the retention of engine oil within your vehicle.
Key benefits of replacing the valve cover include:
Ensure your BMW's engine operates smoothly by replacing the valve cover to contain the engine oil effectively.
Maintaining proper oil levels in your engine is crucial for peak performance. Undetected leaks can cause your oil to drop to dangerously low levels between oil changes, leading to severe engine damage.
One common culprit for oil leaks is the valve cover. Over time, exposure to extreme temperature fluctuations can wear down the gaskets, causing them to fail. Prevent oil leaks and protect your engine by replacing these vital components.

BMW's Single-VANOS M52 and S52 engines were equipped with plastic valve covers from the factory. Nearing thirty years post-production, this material choice has proven to be problematic. Due to years of exposure to extreme engine temperatures and chemical-rich engine oil, these plastic valve covers will eventually warp. This results in a valve cover that will not seal, requiring a complete replacement of both the plastic valve cover and associated gaskets.
To remedy this, many enthusiasts opt to swap for the magnesium valve cover found on M50 and S50 engines. Unfortunately, magnesium is no less resistant to heat-induced warpage than plastic.
Thankfully, Bremmen Parts is aware of these issues and has created an exact-fit, high-quality performance replacement for all Single-VANOS M52 and S52-equipped BMWs. This cover features durable aluminum construction, which eliminates the warping issue found on OE plastic and magnesium valve covers. Unlike the OE magnesium cover upgrade, Bremmen's aluminum cover retains the forward oil fill location found, allowing you to retain your existing engine beauty cover.
Whether you're replacing a warping plastic cover or preemptively replacing this failure-prone component, Bremmen has you covered with a direct-fit aluminum valve cover upgrade.

Keeping the oil inside your engine is extremely important to performance. Between oil change intervals, your oil can dip to dangerous levels if there is a leak you may not be aware of. The valve cover is an extremely common place for this to happen. BMW straight six engines are notorious for leaky valve cover gaskets. Years of exposure to extreme temperature change degrades the gaskets and causes failure. Replace yours to keep your engine oil in your vehicle.
