{"product_id":"bmw-cap-nut","title":"Original BMW Engine Cover Cap Nut M6 for BMW M3, M5, Z3 M, Z4 M, and Z8 (2000–2008)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Original BMW M6 cap nut secures the engine cover on top of the M engines in the BMW M3, M5, Z3 M, Z4 M, and Z8. BMW's parts data calls it a cap nut. On the car it threads onto the studs under the cover and holds the cover firmly against the engine, which keeps engine vibration from shaking it loose. A cap nut has a closed, domed end that covers the stud threads, so the bolt-on looks finished and the threads stay protected. These small nuts often go missing when the engine cover comes off for service work, and a cover with missing nuts is not held the way the factory intended. This nut is made in Denmark and is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMW has produced this part number since August 1992, and it carries across several generations of M cars. The same nut fits the S62 V8 in the E39 M5 and E52 Z8, the S54 inline six in the E46 M3 and the E85 and E86 Z4 M, and both the S50 and S54 versions of the Z3 M. The part number has no supersession, so the nut you receive is the same one BMW installed at the factory. Each nut is sold individually, so order the quantity you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 11-12-1-401-517\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: Cap nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread size: M6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: secures the engine cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: August 1992\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of manufacture: Denmark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, priced each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 24-month Original BMW parts warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many nuts does one order include?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach order is for one nut.
