{"product_id":"bmw-timing-cover","title":"Original BMW Timing Case Cover for BMW X1, X2, i8, and Mini Cooper Models (2014–2020)","description":"\u003cp\u003eKeeping dirt out of the timing drive and engine oil inside it, this Original BMW timing case cover, part number 11-14-8-573-980, closes off the timing case on the BMW X1, X2, and i8 and the Mini Cooper, Clubman, and Countryman from 2014–2020. BMW's official name for the part is timing case cover, and it appears as position 1 on BMW's timing diagram. The cover is made in Austria, weighs 1.9 kg (4.1 lb), and is sold as a single piece. BMW began producing this version in December 2013. Original BMW parts carry a BMW logo and a short seven-digit number, which is 8573980 on this cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 11-14-8-573-980 replaces the earlier 11-14-8-573-136. BMW marks the change as retrospectively interchangeable, so the newer cover can be fitted to cars that were built with the older number. In BMW's parts data the cover is shared across its B-series gasoline engines. These include the B38 in the i8 (B38X after the facelift) and the B46 in the X1 28i and the X2 28i and 28iX. Because one cover serves several engines and two makes, the stamped number on your old cover is a quick way to confirm a match.\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: 11-14-8-573-980\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces: 11-14-8-573-136, retrospectively interchangeable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: timing case cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiagram position: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.9 kg (4.1 lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: December 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as: one piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in: Austria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 24-month parts warranty on Original BMW Parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Tuning Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the timing system is opened for service, replace the gaskets along with any cover that is damaged.
