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.

This hose runs from the oil separator to the intake manifold and is designed to allow the recirculation of built-up oil vapors.

Due to its proximity to engine heat, this hose tends to get brittle and break as it ages. This can lead to oil leaks, vacuum leaks, misfires, and more.

If your crankcase ventilation hose is brittle or leaking, replace it with this unit from URO Parts.

This tube runs from the oil separator to the lower dipstick tube.

BMW has an ongoing issue with oil separators freezing in cold weather if driving is done before the vehicle is fully warmed up. There is often a howling noise followed by numerous oil leaks. The crankcase breather valve is used to purge the oil vapor from the engine block into the valve cover. However, sometimes condensation can cause it to freeze, causing the entire oil separator system to fail, crack, and disintegrate.

Replace this and all the other components of the oil separator system to prevent damage to all the aspects of your engine. As long as you have everything off, you can rest assured that new parts will last and be reliable.
