The F-connector is located on the air intake boot and provides a connection point for the vacuum lines that run to the brake booster and fuel pressure regulator. The factory connector is made of plastic and with heat and exposure to the elements the connector becomes brittle and potentially cracks. As a result, a vacuum leak occurs which can cause poor idling issues, evap fault codes, and poor performance. 

This aluminum version from ECS Tuning is impervious to these issues, and will easy outlast the rest of your plastic and rubber vacuum system components. 

This item fits the following BMWs: 
E39 525i 530i 

E46 325i 325xi 330i 330xi

Z3 2.5i 3.0i
 

No more slow starts! Does your car feel old? Age may not be the issue at all, your throttle cable bushings are mostly likely worn out and your car has lost its pep!

Your throttle cable is the main connection you have from the gas pedal to the throttle body. Do you have hesitation or delayed pedal response? Think of when you are sitting at a stop light or making a turn into a flow of traffic, you may not realize it but if you haven't replaced your throttle cable and bushings this will require you to apply pressure to the gas pedal before getting feedback which can cause slow starts at stop lights and put you in danger when merging in traffic. These are not issues with old cars, they are issues related to your throttle response!

Symptoms to look for: lackluster/sloppy throttle actuation, deformed throttle cable appearance, and bushing condition. Your throttle cable bushings can be soft, cracked or even disintegrated by now.

Upgrade from failed rubber to new billet aluminum bushings for quick gas pedal response and a better engagement with your car.

Due to weak plastic construction, the factory plastic crankcase ventilation breather hose is known to fail. After years of exposure to piping-hot engine bay temperatures and chemical-laden oil vapors, the corrugated plastic tubing can crack, crumble, or fail altogether.

We set out to bulletproof your M52/S52 CCV system with a durable silicone breather hose, designed to provide a comprehensive upgrade and permanent replacement for the factory plastic hose. By replacing the flimsy, heat-hardened OEM plastic hose with a four-ply fluorosilicone hose, you'll experience peace of mind knowing your M52 or S52 is free from the inevitable return of oil leaks, vacuum leaks, and drivability concerns that would have been.

This breather hose is found at the front of the engine, and is used to connect the cyclone separator to the valve cover. It replaces OEM part number 11151703775.

Features:

Silicone construction ensures a durable replacement that is sure to outlast OE plastic Designed as a direct replacement for the factory breather hose - not too short like many aftermarket alternatives, and does not require cutting to fit Works seamlessly with the OEM OBDII valve cover and cyclone separator, as well as the Turner Motorsport Billet Aluminum Valve Cover (T#26238386) Design:

Three-ply wire-reinforced fluorosilicone hose is designed to resist degradation due to exposure to oil vapors O-rings are pre-installed in OE Norma connectors for a lasting seal Includes pre-installed 430 stainless steel hose clamps for durability and corrosion-resistance Product Development:

Our Silicone CCV Hose Upgrade was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research and Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio, facility. We strive for the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology, including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modelling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

Boost airflow and unleash a deeper induction sound to rekindle the excitement of driving your BMW E39 525i.

The Luft-Technik Intake System from ECS Tuning is purpose-built for M52TU and M54-powered 525i / 528I models, offering a performance upgrade that overcomes the restrictive factory airbox while maintaining a precise, factory-like fit. ECS Tuning engineered this system around the unique mounting geometry of the E39 chassis, ensuring an effortless bolt-on installation that integrates seamlessly with OEM components.

This performance intake features a high-flow conical air filter housed in a powder-coated aluminum heat shield, designed to seal against the hood and make full use of the factory inlet ducting. By drawing in cooler outside air, the system helps reduce intake temperatures for denser combustion and improved efficiency. A reinforced silicone intake elbow and a precision-engineered MAF housing keep the stock sensor in its proper location while smoothing airflow and reducing turbulence.

The results are immediately noticeable: quicker throttle response, a throatier intake growl, and a cleaner, performance-focused look under the hood. Built with premium materials such as stainless-steel hardware and heat-resistant silicone, ECS Tuning’s Luft-Technik Intake delivers both durability and long-term performance.

For BMW E39 525i / 528I drivers who want OE-level fitment with the benefits of sharper response, enhanced induction noise, and improved airflow, the Luft-Technik Intake by ECS Tuning is a must-have upgrade.

Key features:

21% increase in flow over the stock intake
Seals to the hood for the largest and coldest air space.
Unrestricted air flow for maximum induction noise.
The heat shield is designed to fit the E39 chassis perfectly, utilizing factory mounting locations, and creates a colder air pocket where the factory inlet duct is.
5052 powder-coated aluminum heatshield, stiff, corrosion-resistant, and finished for a long life in the swap environment.
The black silicone intake elbow and coupler is a compliant, high-temperature silicone that grips clamps and resists blow-off during repeated fitment and heat cycles.
Retains factory MAF
Stainless-steel hardware for longevity and corrosion resistance.
Fitment & compatibility:

Specifically engineered to work with utilizing that maximum air space and retaining the OEM cold air inlet. Mounts to the factory frame rail, no modification required.

Tailored to the M54B25 found in the 5-series chassis.
