A smarter solution to a critical S65 engine flaw. The MMX Aluminum VANOS Covers are a direct replacement for the fragile plastic originals on the BMW E90 M3's S65 V8 engine components known to crack, break, or even fall off with age and heat. When these factory covers fail, they can introduce plastic debris into the oil system, risking oil pickup blockage and potentially catastrophic engine damage due to oil starvation.
MMX resolves this issue entirely with a precision-engineered solution: CNC-machined from high-grade 6082-T6 aluminum, these VANOS covers are built to last. They’re a perfect fit for the OEM components but eliminate the risk of plastic degradation altogether. Even better, MMX’s design keeps the internal spring fully enclosed, unlike other aftermarket options, for superior protection and reliability.
Installation is tool-free and straightforward, with the covers snapping securely into place. Finished in a stealthy anodized black, they deliver a clean OEM+ look while offering serious peace of mind under the hood. Engineered in the UK, this upgrade is not only more durable but also far more cost-effective than replacing the entire VANOS unit especially since BMW does not offer the plastic covers separately.
