The head gasket is sold separately (see below). Head gaskets are available in more than one thickness to account for a shaved or milled cylinder head. Use a stock thickness if you are not shaving the head.

Instead of buying just the head gasket (BMW part #11127849620) you can get all of the other gaskets and seals needed to complete the job.

Additional parts such as the head gasket, head bolts, other hardware, and sensors are sold separately (see below).

Symptoms of head gasket failure include: white residue (tapioca) in the valve cover, under the oil filler cap, and in drained oil, low coolant (not caused by failure in cooling system), low oil, oil leak onto exhaust manifold, and loss of power from loss of compression. Cooling system trouble on the S55 must be addressed quickly as the aluminum head is easily damaged if overheating occurs.

This is an OEM head gasket set manufactured by Elring - one of the original suppliers to BMW for these gaskets, as well as many other gaskets and seals. As the OEM it meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. These parts have a two year warranty.

Because this kit fits multiple models it may include duplicate or redundant parts.
