We have seen so many M52/M54/S52 Vanos line failures at the track that we have to offer you a solution. The factory line is prone to failure due to the OEM hard-line - this stainless steel line alleviates the issues imposed by the factory design and enables you to worry less about your Vanos system. We trust ECS Tuning's Exact-Fit Stainless Steel lines for several different applications, and their M52/M54/S52 Vanos line is no exception.

The timing chain in any vehicle can begin to stretch and rattle over time. This is a common issue, and though BMW says it is a lifetime part, most enthusiasts decide to change them. If you need only the timing chain instead of a kit, ECS Tuning has your replacement.

This oil pipe hose runs from the VAN0S adjusting unit to the oil filter housing. At some point the rubber line shrinks or cracks and oil can weep out of the swedge fittings. The fittings at the banjo bolts can also leak so replacing the seals for each banjo fitting is strongly recommended.

When doing any sort of repair or maintenance there is no replacement for genuine factory parts. Turner Motorsport carries the Genuine BMW brand with pride and has the parts you need to complete your next project with confidence.

If your VANOS system is leaking, replace the gasket to restore the tight seal. An oil leak here will cause a significant amount of oil to leak down the front of the engine and if isn't fixed, could potentially lead to issues with the VANOS system itself.

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!
