This gasket seals the intake manifold, also referred to as the air collector, to the throttle bodies. Most applications use 10 gaskets per vehicle, making replacement recommended whenever the intake assembly is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003eEngine Intake Manifold Gasket\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn engine intake manifold gasket seals the intake system connection point to help ensure that metered air reaches the engine without leaks. It also helps prevent unmetered air, dirt, and debris from entering the intake tract. Depending on the vehicle and engine design, intake manifold gaskets may be made from paper, composite material, metal layers, rubber, or similar elastomer materials.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is common practice to replace intake manifold gaskets whenever the intake manifold or air collector is removed. Replacing the gaskets during service helps prevent vacuum leaks, poor sealing, rough running, and airflow related faults after reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003eEngine Intake Manifold Gasket Failure Symptoms\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0; padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e \u003cli\u003eAir leaks caused by heat, vibration, age, or material degradation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwelling or damage from cleaners, solvents, oils, or other chemicals.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLoss of elasticity, causing the gasket to harden, flatten, or become brittle.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCheck engine light caused by unmetered air or airflow related fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRough running or misfires from a severe intake air leak.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOil residue around the intake area from crankcase ventilation vapors and poor gasket sealing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Genuine BMW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47657197764861,"sku":"BMW-11617834685","price":59.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/0329\/9069\/files\/BMW-11617834685.png?v=1781020925","url":"https:\/\/gemsautocraft.com\/products\/bmw-air-plenum-gasket-genuine-bmw-11617834685","provider":"GEMS autocraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
