Original BMW Engine Oil Pressure Relief Valve for BMW 328i xDrive, 528i, and X3 xDrive28i (2007–2013)

This Original BMW engine oil pressure relief valve controls oil pressure in the lubrication system of the 2009–2013 BMW 328i xDrive, the 2011 528i, and the 2007–2012 X3 xDrive28i. BMW identifies it as a hydraulic valve, part number 11-41-7-584-991, and it is sold as a single piece. Production of this version began in November 2007. It supersedes the earlier 11-41-7-555-201, and BMW rates that change as exchangeable retrospectively.

As an Original BMW Part, the valve is covered by a 24-month parts warranty.

A relief valve in an oil system opens to bleed off excess pressure when pump output exceeds what the engine needs, which protects filters, seals, and lines from overpressure. In BMW's data this valve follows the six-cylinder N52N and N53 engine families across a wide range of chassis. That range includes the E90 and E92 3 Series, the F10 5 Series, the E83 and F25 X3, and the E70 X5, E84 X1, F01 7 Series, and E89 Z4. Because the newer number replaces 11-41-7-555-201 retrospectively, it is also the correct choice for engines that originally carried the older valve.
