Intake vavles

Post by Traveler »

Pulled my head this weekend, Found the head gasket leaking in two places. So glad I did.

Odd thing though, the two leaking cylinders have intake valves that are trashed.

So where do I get a couple new ones?

So apparently nobody makes valves for these engines anymore.

I have no been able to find any.

Just used ones then?

You should be able to get them from Bav Auto or the dealer. Part number 11342242621 shows up as $74.95 from BavAuto. Expensive little buggers.

Thank you, just found that out as well.
They are all in Germany, noting in the states so it will take me weeks to get this done now.

Kind of sucks but I guess if there is no other options.

What engine do you have? There should be plenty in the states.

You can also get them for only about $17.00 through many websites such as this one:

www.bimmerparts.com

You should receive them within a few days via UPS. Don't pay $70 for the same part...

It is brutal to look at, but I have a crappy monitor as well.

Thanks for the heads up. Nice people to work with.

He didn't have any but he ordered me a couple from Germany for $65 each. That is the best price I had gotten yet so I ordered them.

Thanks,
