The valve cover is responsible for sealing the internal workings of the engines' top end. Most vehicles require a replacement gasket at some point or another and newer models have plastic valve covers that get brittle and crack with age.
Keeping the oil inside your engine is extremely important to performance. Between oil change intervals, your oil can dip to dangerous levels if there is a leak you may not be aware of. The valve cover is an extremely common place for this to happen. Years of exposure to extreme temperature change degrades the gaskets and causes failure. Replace your valve cover gasket to keep your engine oil in your BMW. Replaces BMW p/n 11129894803 & 11129452183
