{"product_id":"bmw-valve-cover-27","title":"Original BMW Left Valve Cover (Cylinders 5–8) for BMW M3 E90, E92, and E93 S65 (2008–2013)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn the S65 engine in the 2008–2013 BMW M3, Original BMW cylinder head cover 11-12-7-848-154 is the left-side valve cover that closes off the top of cylinders 5–8. A valve cover seals the top of the cylinder head over the camshafts and valvetrain and keeps engine oil inside the engine. BMW calls this part a cylinder head cover, and its marking for cylinders 5 through 8 is what separates it from the cover on the opposite side. One number covers the left side of every M3 in the fitment below, regardless of body style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo details set this cover apart from its neighbors. It covers the left side only. It is also the later of two numbers for this position. Production of 11-12-7-848-154 began partway through the M3's run, and it replaced the earlier cover in BMW's parts system. Anyone comparing part numbers on an older car may still see the superseded number, which is covered in the questions below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW, supplied as a Genuine BMW part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 11-12-7-848-154\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: Cylinder head cover, cylinders 5–8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: left side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: S65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.8 kg (4.1 lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: September 2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as: a single cover\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 I use this cover on an M3 built with 11-12-7-838-266?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
