Head Gasket for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

Includes the head gasket.

Sometimes you have to take the cylinder head off of your vehicle to diagnose problems, have it rebuilt, or replace a faulty head gasket. It tends to be a fairly labor intensive job, so anytime you can make it easier is definitely helpful.

When it comes time for reassembly, one of the biggest problems is finding quality gaskets and seals. Turner has your solution with this cylinder head gasket kit. With so many gaskets that are one use only to replace, getting them all done at the same time can be made harder by not having everything you need. With the proper, high quality gaskets, your reassembly will go much easier with no need for trip after trip to the local auto parts stores. Intake, exhaust, downpipe, valve cover, and in some applications valve seals will all help to get your engine into top condition.

When it's time to put everything back together, there are some things that should not be overlooked. Most cylinder head fasteners found on European automobiles are a one time use or stretch bolt. To be sure that everything is tightened down properly, it is important to replace them to get the proper torque reading and ensure the longevity of your repair.

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!

This set of top-end gaskets is a both a time and money saver. It includes all of the commonly replaced gaskets, seals, and o-rings when pulling the cylinder head for overhaul. Having these on hand instead of chasing them down at the last minute will save you time, money, and frustration. With the head off the car 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 the newer BMW models have very strict emissions controls and vacuum and oil leaks can create turmoil in the 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.
