M56 Intake Manifold Gaskets - E46 325i M56 SULEV

This is the profile gasket used to seal all intake ports on the intake manifold to the cylinder head on 2003-2005 E46 325i models with the M56 SULEV engine. A fresh profile gasket should be installed any time the intake manifold is removed or if the existing gasket shows signs of leaking (vacuum leak).

This part is manufactured by an aftermarket supplier of European auto parts, including many gaskets and seals. While not carrying OEM status, this part follows the design of the original very closely and uses similar materials. An aftermarket part may even have the same TUV approval as its OEM counterpart. The brand may even be OEM to another manufacturer besides BMW. This aftermarket brand has a two year warranty - the same as Genuine BMW and OEM brands.
