{"product_id":"bmw-oil-check-valve-2","title":"Original BMW Cylinder Head Oil Check Valve (Non-Return Valve) for BMW 5 Series, 6 Series, 7 Series, Alpina B7, and X5 (2002–2010)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Original BMW cylinder head oil check valve 11-36-7-539-857 is an M14 x 1.5 threaded non-return valve that keeps oil in the cylinder head at start-up on V8 and V12 BMW 5 Series, 6 Series, 7 Series, Alpina B7, and X5 models. A check valve lets oil pass in one direction and stops it from draining back once the engine shuts off. This valve sits in the cylinder head. Over time it can fail and let oil escape from the head, and that failure is a common cause of low oil pressure at start-up on N62-equipped BMWs. Pieces of a failed valve can sometimes be found in the oil filter housing. The valve comes with its O-ring and is made in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMW has produced this number since November 2003. It replaces the earlier 11-36-0-392-105, and BMW marks the change as exchangeable retrospectively, so the current valve can go into cars that left the factory with the earlier part. Numbers 11-36-0-150-305 and 11-36-7-516-120 also cross to this valve. BMW names it simply a non-return valve, with the M14 x 1.5 thread size as its only designation, and it weighs 34 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW (Original BMW Part)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 11-36-7-539-857\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: non-return valve, M14 x 1.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocation: cylinder head oil circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 34 g (1.2 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: November 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupersedes 11-36-0-392-105, exchangeable retrospectively\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, made in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 24 months on Original BMW Parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this valve cause low oil pressure at start-up?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
