BMW names it simply the vent pipe and has built it since July 2015. It is part of the positive crankcase ventilation system, which carries oil vapor and blow-by gas out of the crankcase so the engine can burn it instead of venting it. Made in France, it is sold individually as a single piece. The pipe lives with constant heat, oil vapor, and crankcase pressure, and over time those conditions break down the plastic and make the connectors brittle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne part number covers every B58 application in this range, so there is no separate version for xDrive, Gran Coupe, or Gran Turismo models. BMW's parts data shows it on the F22 and F23 2 Series, the facelifted F30 and F34 3 Series, the F32, F33, and F36 4 Series, the G30 5 Series, the G32 6 Series Gran Turismo, the G11 and G12 7 Series, the G01 X3, and the G02 X4. A failing vent pipe usually shows itself as oily residue on the hose and nearby engine surfaces, a check engine light for an intake air leak or airflow fault, or in severe cases rough running and a misfire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW (Original BMW Parts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 11-15-7-637-521\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: vent pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem: positive crankcase ventilation, connects to the valve cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: B58 inline six-cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: July 2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of manufacture: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as: one piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 24-month parts warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Tuning Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePCV line connectors turn brittle with heat and oil exposure, and their securing clips break easily during removal or while other service work is going on nearby, so release the clips on the old pipe carefully.
