Genuine BMW Charge Air Line 11618506079 | Intake Charge Pipe

Product Description

The Genuine BMW Charge Air Line 11618506079 is an essential component of the turbocharged engine air-intake system. Also known as an intake charge pipe, turbo hose or intercooler-to-throttle-body hose, this BMW OE component carries pressurized air between the intercooler and intake system, helping deliver the required boost air to the engine.

BMW OE number 11 61 8 506 079 is associated primarily with the BMW X5 E70 and X6 E71 equipped with the M57N2 3.0L diesel engine. BMW’s parts catalogue lists it for applications including the X5 3.0d, X5 3.0sd, X6 30dX and X6 35dX.

A worn, cracked or leaking charge air pipe can result in loss of boost pressure and poor engine performance. Replacing a damaged pipe with the correct OE-specification component helps maintain the integrity of the turbocharger air system.

Why Replace a BMW Charge Air Pipe?

The charge air system operates under pressure, so a damaged or leaking pipe can affect turbocharged engine performance. Common signs of a charge-air leak can include:

Reduced engine power
Loss of turbo boost
Hissing or air-leak noises
Poor acceleration
Increased smoke in some diesel applications
Engine-management warnings
Oil residue around a leaking intake connection

If you notice these symptoms on your BMW X5 or X6 diesel, the charge-air system should be inspected before replacing components.
