Using a complete gasket set will save you time and money if you have the engine out of the car and are performing any major repairs with the oil pan and timing covers off the motor. This is the correct S14 bottom-end gasket set, not a re-packaged M10 kit.

This set of gaskets is a both a time and money saver. It includes all of the commonly replaced gaskets, seals, and o-rings when performing this overhaul. Having these on hand instead of chasing them down at the last minute will save you time, money, and frustration. With this area of the engine apart you're going to want or need to replace these items anyway to ensure it's free of fluid and vacuum leaks. This is especially important because some states have very strict emissions regulations and vacuum and oil leaks can lead to failed inspections tests. On newer cars this can also create issues in the on-board diagnostics system. Even if you're not pulling the head this set includes so many valuable parts you'll want to keep this on hand to use for spares.

With more than 100 years in the industry, Elring is one of the oldest names in the European autoparts segment. Delivering OE-quality you can rest assured the job will be done right the first time.

M7 Oil Catch Can Kit for MINIs

Newly Updated Kit for Improved Engine Performance

The newly updated R55 through R59 Oil Catch Can kit for MINIs equipped with the N16 or N18 engine comes with a "designed-to-fit" stainless steel bracket, mounting hardware, and pre-assembled hoses. Installation is super easy... no drilling and no special tools are needed.

Note: This kit has been redesigned to fit on the firewall directly behind the outlet of the airbox. It uses the factory tab located on the firewall.

Why You Need an Oil Catch Can

"Forum experts and social hysteria" may say an OCC is not needed, but we beg to differ. Many MINI owners suffer from carbon buildup on their intake valve due to oil being recycled through the intake tract to be burned.

With the M7 Oil Catch Can, your MINI Cooper's engine will be protected from excessive oil and hydrocarbon buildup, which leads to performance-hindering oil film and sludge along your intake tract, on your engine control sensors, and on your engine's intake valves.

This oil film & sludge can appear in other critical places throughout the engine, such as the intercooler and the MAF sensor (Mass Air Flow), where clean surfaces are critical for maximized heat transfer and engine performance.

Features and Benefits

• Prevents intake tract oil contamination and intake valve damage
• Prevents premature sensor failure
• Keeps engine performance at peak levels
• Increases flow area by 77% for improved oil separation
• Includes billet aluminum oil catch can with coalescing oil separation technology and integrated dipstick
• Comes with two molded oil-resistant silicone hoses with STS technology (available in Red or Black)
• Includes installation hardware kit and printed instructions
• 100% carbon fiber housing with CNC machined billet aluminum top and bottom

Easy Installation

With our exclusive "Exact-Fit" pre-assembled hose kit and brackets, installation is super-easy. All hoses, brackets, clamps, necessary fittings, and easy-to-follow detailed step-by-step instructions are included. An oil drain plug and an easy-to-view sight tube are also provided, allowing you to monitor the oil level in the can.

Beware of other "low-cost" catch can systems that use silicone hoses, as oil and silicone are not compatible and silicone hoses will eventually deteriorate, causing a mess in your engine compartment. Access Secret Premium Dashboard

VAC's S54 Vanos Hub is designed as a direct replacement for the fragile BMW OE Vanos Hub which typically fails due to a broken drive pin. The VAC Hub has an Upgraded Drive Pin design, which is larger in diameter, as well as more material on the outside wall of the pin. In addition, the hub is made from 4340HT Billet Bar and heat treated to the same BMW OE Rockwell Hardness spec. The upgraded design is not only significantly stronger, but the larger diameter Drive Pins also minimize the huge clearance (approximately 1mm) that was in the original design by BMW and reduces the clearance to 0.2mm. This is critical in helping greatly reduce or eliminate the VANOS noise.

Also, this upgraded design eliminates the need for modifying the Pump Ring or having to buy a replacement, which further saves you money!!!
