Valve Cover

The N54 valve cover, while not a terrible design, has it's share of flaws. Most owners have had to replace this part over time as it can crack for seemingly no reason. Additionally, the stock valve cover has its limitations for vacuum and PCV connectivity.

Tired of being told you will run two -10 lines from your VC to your Catch Can? Now you can run them any way you want! Including complete VTA, oil cap one-way breather, or whatever else you may need. This i a true solution that solves many plumbing headaches. 

Accessability options aside, this part looks magnificent. CNC Machined and anodized in your choice or Red, Black, or Clear, this valve cover is sure to turn heads!

A common source of oil leaks is the valve cover, where gaskets can degrade over time due to extreme temperature fluctuations. Replacing these gaskets is essential to prevent leaks and ensure your engine runs smoothly.

Maintaining proper oil levels is critical for engine performance. Unnoticed leaks can cause oil levels to drop dangerously low between changes, risking severe engine damage.

What's Included in the Kit:

Valve Cover Perimeter Gaskets NRW Design Silicone Grommets/Sealing Washers (x30) Assorted O-Rings, Screws, and Necessary Hardware Replace your valve cover gaskets with our comprehensive kit to maintain optimal oil levels and protect your engine from damage.

Plastic valve covers, while inexpensive to produce, are prone to warping over time. This can lead to an improper seal with the cylinder head, even when using a new gasket. Fortunately, BMW offers a comprehensive valve cover kit that includes all necessary seals and mounting hardware for a reliable installation.

When these gaskets leak you'll start to smell oil burning when the engine is hot. Also everything downward from the top of the engine becomes coated in a greasy film.

The valve cover gasket keeps all of the motor oil inside your engine. Your valve train and lifters get soaked with oil to keep everything lubricated. If the valve cover fails, engine oil seeps and leaks out, running down and burning on the block or cylinder head. Replace it and keep your engine compartment clean and tidy with all the engine oil in the motor.

If you are removing your S54 valve cover for valve adjustment, inspection or repairs, you can now get all the gaskets you need in one box.

Included are

Valve cover gasket
Spark plug seals
Nut seals
