Oiling System

A beautiful addition and durable upgrade for your engine

Tired of staring at that bright red plastic oil dipstick? Waiting for a way to add a nice touch to your engine bay without going over the top? ECS Tuning is proud to announce the billet aluminum oil dipstick! Designed to OE specifications with an easy-to-read fill line, offered in three different finishes. Available in black, polished, or clear anodized, we have an offering for every type of enthusiast. Not only does it look better, but also performs better. Because of the durability, it is easier to insert than the factory ribbon dipstick. So, no more fighting with your dipstick to re-install it.

ECS Tuning presents magnetic drain plugs tailored for your BMW, equipped with a permanently mounted magnet to trap ferrous metal suspended in your oil. These plugs capture tiny particles, typically evading the oil filter, resulting in a cleaner engine. Over time, this saves your bearings and oil pump from unnecessary wear. Crafted from robust 7075-T6 aluminum, the ECS Tuning M12 magnetic drain plug boasts 80% more strength than the common 6061 aluminum.

• Permanently mounted magnet for metal particle trapping
• Cleaner engine and extended bearing life
• 7075-T6 aluminum construction for superior strength
• Captures metal particles from wearing or rebuilt engines
• Ideal for normal wear of reciprocating parts
• Torque to 18ft-lbs using a 17mm socket, like your stock drain plug

Ditch the failure-prone plastic housing with this upgraded aluminum oil filter housing, built for strength, reliability, and peace of mind.

The factory plastic housing is a well-known weak point and a common source of oil leaks on BMW B58 engines. Once leaks develop, replacement is the only solution. Left unchecked, even minor oil loss can lead to premature engine wear, or in the worst cases, catastrophic failure.

This upgraded housing not only solves the problem with a durable aluminum construction, but also comes complete with caps and seals for a straightforward, hassle-free installation.

Protect your engine from unnecessary risk, upgrade your filter housing, and ensure a leak-free, long-lasting seal.

Enhance Your Mini's Drivetrain Longevity with ECS Tuning's Magnetic Plugs

Safeguard your Mini's drivetrain by using ECS Tuning's Magnetic Plugs, meticulously designed to eliminate abrasive metal particles from your fluid. These plugs, featuring permanent magnets, effectively attract and retain tiny abrasive and ferrous metal particles, preventing their circulation within the lubrication systems.

Various conditions, including normal wear of moving parts, inadequate post-machining flushing, casting flaws, or stress-induced component breakdown, can introduce metal particles. ECS Tuning's Magnetic Plugs are the solution, ensuring protection for crucial drivetrain components by capturing these particles.

• Removes abrasive metal particles for improved drivetrain longevity
• Engineered with permanent magnets for effective particle capture
• Guards against wear caused by metal particles in the lubrication system
• Includes 10 copper crush washers for replacement during oil service

Modern emission regulations require a closed PCV/Breather system for cleaner operation. However, inefficient oil particle capture can lead to excessive oil vapor ingestion, causing carbon buildup, reduced performance, and fuel economy. ECS Tuning's updated ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can, now with an easy-to-empty 1/4" drain fitting, is engineered to collect toxic blow-by gases, minimize carbon deposits, and reduce oil contamination within engine oil. Recirculating oil vapor ensures emissions compliance without venting to the atmosphere.

• Key Features:
• Highly Efficient Oil Separator: Strategically positioned 4 chamber baffle system maximizes oil/air separation and minimizes oil droplets in the intake tract.
• Integrated Dipstick: Knurled and black anodized oil dipstick simplifies oil volume inspection.
• Reservoir: Available in 6oz or 8oz capacity with a 1/4" NPT drain plug fitting.
• Serviceable: Easily removable baffle plates and drain plug for cleaning.
• Easy/Customizable Installation: Combine with the ECS Universal Bracket Kit for simplified installation and adjustable mounting locations.
• Leak-Free Fittings: Machined -10AN ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings available for secure connections (fittings sold separately).

Meet modern emission regulations while preserving engine performance with the ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can. Designed for BMW and MINI vehicles, this system efficiently captures blow-by gases, preventing excessive oil vapor ingestion into the intake tract. The innovative 4-chamber baffle system maximizes oil/air separation, reducing carbon build-up and pollutants. Featuring a 1/4" drain fitting for easy maintenance, this catch can minimizes oil deposits, ensuring cleaner emissions and enhanced engine performance.

Key Benefits:

• Efficient 4-chamber baffle system for maximum oil/air separation
• Recirculated design reduces oil ingestion, promoting cleaner emissions
• Durable 6061-T6 billet machined body with anodized black finish for longevity
• Integrated dipstick and sealed reservoir for easy oil inspection and maintenance
• Serviceable design with removable baffle plates for cleaning
• Easy installation with customizable mounting options and leak-free fittings
• Engineered and manufactured in the USA for superior performance and durability
