M42 Oil supply seal

Tremonator · 10-22-2007, 09:50 AM

Hey there, great forum you guys have!

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can find an oil supply seal for an m42 valve cover. I can't find it in any valve cover gasket sets!

The part number I believe is 11121247948

Thanks.

P.S: In case you don't know what I'm talking about here's a pic...

None of them stock the part but cool links nonetheless, they will probably come in handy down the line thanks!
I guess I'll have to go to plan B and phon the dealer.

The shot was from a tutorial I found on 318ti.org, here's the link

Any word from the dealer? I'd like to do mine soon with the Valve cover gasket and clean out my ICV at the same time.

Yeah, I phoned Budd's BMW in hamilton yesterday and I'm on my way to pickup the part now...great service!!
I ordered the rest of my gasket set online and as it turns out it probably would of worked out cheaper if I'd bought the whole set through the dealer lol.
lesson learned = don't assume online shopping is cheaper!

BTW you might not need it but here's a tutorial on how to replace the ICV (in case you havn't seen it already)
Hope it helps!
