Aluminum oil filter cover with two sensor connections

This high-quality aluminum oil filter cover allows for the installation of the standard oil filter and up to two sensors, such as for oil temperature or oil pressure. This provides the basis for precise monitoring of important engine data without having to forgo the original filter.

More control over engine data

Thanks to the two 1/8" NPT threaded connections, temperature or pressure sensors can be installed directly in the oil circuit. This allows you to keep a constant eye on your engine's vital components—a real advantage for ambitious drivers and tuning enthusiasts.

Suitable for many BMW models with M52/M54/M56 engine

The cover is compatible with BMW six-cylinder models of the E36 and E46 series, including Compact versions, as well as the BMW Z3 (2.0, 2.5, 2.8, 3.0i) and the Z4 E85. It is suitable for the M52, M54, and M56 engines. The cover can be used in BMW M50 engines, provided the filter housing is converted to the M52/M54/M56 standard.

Overview of compatible vehicles:

• BMW 3 Series E36 (6-cylinder) and E36 Compact (6-cylinder)

• BMW 3 Series E46 (6-cylinder) and E46 Compact (6-cylinder)

• BMW Z3 with 2.0, 2.5, 2.8 or 3.0-i engine

Robust construction & precise manufacturing

The oil filter cover is made of CNC-machined aluminum. The precision manufacturing ensures perfect coaxiality between the engine and filter, and each part is inspected according to strict quality standards. Production takes place in the EU and complies with ISO 9001:2015 standards.

Simple OE replacement

This aftermarket replacement oil filter cover replaces the BMW OE oil filter cover 11-42-1-744-000 / 11421744000. It fits the BMW base/mounts 11-42-1-738-639 and 11-42-1-738-640, as used as standard equipment on M52, M54, and M56 engines. When changing the filter, an original or recommended replacement filter with an additional plastic basket can still be used.

The aluminum oil filter cover thus offers you a durable solution for the integration of additional sensors and fits perfectly into numerous BMW models — ideal for anyone who wants to get more out of their engine.
