Oil Separation & Breather System for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

The factory rubber/plastic hoses become brittle and crack over time. Brittle and cracked hoses can cause multiple vacuum leaks that are impossible to repair without hose replacement. Vacuum leaks can cause many problems including rough running, missing, stalling at idle, and even a no-start condition.

The factory hoses offered through BMW are plastic and will yield the same results of becoming brittle and damaged over time. Our solution is a premium replacement that will outlast everyone of the OEM replacements. Our Silicone Crankcase Vent Hose can be used to replace the factory brittle hose to ensure your S54 is free from vacuum leaks and performing properly.

CSL Vent Hose (11157833649) - Silicone Crankcase Vent hose is a direct replacement

Key benefits:

Lifetime replacement of the brittle OEM plastic crankcase breather hose that is susceptible to cracking overtime from constant heat cycling

Design:

Retains OEM hose end fittings to ensure proper seal

Modern emission regulations require a closed PCV/Breather system for cleaner operation. However, inefficient oil particle capture can lead to excessive oil vapor ingestion, causing carbon buildup, reduced performance, and fuel economy. ECS Tuning's updated ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can, now with an easy-to-empty 1/4" drain fitting, is engineered to collect toxic blow-by gases, minimize carbon deposits, and reduce oil contamination within engine oil. Recirculating oil vapor ensures emissions compliance without venting to the atmosphere.

• Key Features:
• Highly Efficient Oil Separator: Strategically positioned 4 chamber baffle system maximizes oil/air separation and minimizes oil droplets in the intake tract.
• Integrated Dipstick: Knurled and black anodized oil dipstick simplifies oil volume inspection.
• Reservoir: Available in 6oz or 8oz capacity with a 1/4" NPT drain plug fitting.
• Serviceable: Easily removable baffle plates and drain plug for cleaning.
• Easy/Customizable Installation: Combine with the ECS Universal Bracket Kit for simplified installation and adjustable mounting locations.
• Leak-Free Fittings: Machined -10AN ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings available for secure connections (fittings sold separately).
