This hose runs from the oil separator to the intake manifold and is designed to allow the recirculation of built-up oil vapors.
Due to its proximity to engine heat, this hose tends to get brittle and break as it ages. This can lead to oil leaks, vacuum leaks, misfires, and more.
If your crankcase ventilation hose is brittle or leaking, replace it with this unit from URO Parts.
This tube runs from the oil separator to the lower dipstick tube.
BMW has an ongoing issue with oil separators freezing in cold weather if driving is done before the vehicle is fully warmed up. There is often a howling noise followed by numerous oil leaks. The crankcase breather valve is used to purge the oil vapor from the engine block into the valve cover. However, sometimes condensation can cause it to freeze, causing the entire oil separator system to fail, crack, and disintegrate.
Replace this and all the other components of the oil separator system to prevent damage to all the aspects of your engine. As long as you have everything off, you can rest assured that new parts will last and be reliable.
