BMW Engine Oil Cooler Seal – Elring 11428637820

Seals the oil cooler to the oil filter housing, a common source of oil leaks

This gasket sits between the oil filter housing and the oil cooler. With age, this seal is known to cause leaks between the housing and the cooler which can easily be seen on the engine block. We recommend replacing this seal as a regular maintenance item.

Please note: This gasket is an updated design made out of FPM-PX (Fluorine rubber). This material is particularly heat-resistant and resistant to oil making it ideal for an oil filter housing gasket. This updated gasket replaces the originally equipped HNBR (Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) gaskets which are known to harden over time and cause oil leaks. This updated gasket and material change will degrade slower and has an increased useable service life.
