Compatibility & Function: Fits N62 3.6L-4.8L, N63, S63 4.4L V-type 8-cylinder (V8) and N46, N42, N45, N40, N45N Inline 4-cylinder (L4) 1.6L-2.0L engine models. The Valve Seal ensures smooth engine performance, controls oil consumption, and prevents engine gas leaks. Issues like engine carbon buildup, loss of acceleration power, and reduced performance are often directly linked to this component
Failure Symptoms: When the valve oil Stem seal rubber ring becomes damaged/worn out, expect blue smoke emission from the exhaust – especially noticeable during startup, hard acceleration, or idling. Rapid engine oil level drop requiring frequent top-ups occurs as oil enters the combustion chamber. Spark plug carbon fouling leads to reduced ignition performance. Overall engine performance drops, with insufficient cylinder pressure resulting in power loss and sluggish acceleration
Selection & Installation: Choosing an {Original fitting} perfectly resolves issues and restores original engine condition. It provides long-lasting sealing for both intake and exhaust valves. The sealing lip features a self-tightening spring or wire, ensuring an effective seal around the engine valve guide stem. It remains effective for sealing oil under all conditions.
