The oil filter housing is pretty self explanitory; It holds the oil filter assembly. Not only does this provide a small amount of cooling but it makes the filter much easier to service.
If you have noticed a mixture of coolant and oil, have consistently suffered from unexplained coolant loss, or if your BMW's engine has higher mileage, there is a good chance that your factory plastic oil filter housing has cracked and/or failed. This Aluminum URO oil filter housing and cooler is a complete replacement of your factory unit, which eliminates the possibility of failure due to weak materials.

Over time, has the cap for your oil filter housing become harder to remove? Using the wrong tool can round the top of the cap, making removal harder each time. Replace your old cap and seal to ensure your engine is leak-free. We recommend pairing this with the Schwaben Oil Filter Cap Tool (T#371924) to make installation and removal easier.
