BMW parts catalogues also identify it as an <strong>engine oil filter adapter gasket, oil filter housing gasket, cover gasket, housing assembly gasket or oil filter housing seal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This is an important distinction when listing the product online: <strong>11428637821 is a gasket\/seal, not an engine oil filter element<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>BMW Part Details<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>BMW Part Number:<\/strong> 11428637821<\/li>\n<li><strong>BMW OE Format:<\/strong> 11 42 8 637 821<\/li>\n<li><strong>Product:<\/strong> Oil Filter Housing Gasket<\/li>\n<li><strong>Also Known As:<\/strong> Oil Filter Housing Seal \/ Oil Filter Adapter Gasket<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brand:<\/strong> Genuine BMW<\/li>\n<li><strong>Replaces:<\/strong> 11427537293<\/li>\n<li><strong>System:<\/strong> Engine lubrication \/ oil filter housing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>RealOEM confirms that 11428637821 superseded 11427537293, with the newer number being used from April 2015 onward.<\/p>\n<h2>What Does the BMW Oil Filter Housing Gasket Do?<\/h2>\n<p>The oil filter housing gasket creates a sealed connection between the <strong>oil filter housing and the engine block<\/strong>. Over time, the original gasket can harden, shrink or lose its sealing ability due to repeated exposure to engine oil and heat.<\/p>\n<p>A deteriorated gasket can result in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Oil leaking around the oil filter housing<\/li>\n<li>Visible oil residue around the engine<\/li>\n<li>Oil dripping onto surrounding engine components<\/li>\n<li>Low engine oil level if the leak becomes significant<\/li>\n<li>Burning-oil smells when leaking oil reaches hot components<\/li>\n<li>The need for repeated engine-oil top-ups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Replacing a worn gasket helps restore the proper seal and prevent further oil leakage.<\/p>\n<p>ECS Tuning describes this component specifically as the gasket that seals the oil filter housing to its attachment point on the side of the engine block.<\/p>\n<h2>BMW Engine Compatibility<\/h2>\n<p>Part <strong>11428637821<\/strong> appears across a range of BMW engines and applications. Catalogue data includes applications involving BMW <strong>N20, N52, N54, N55 and S55<\/strong> engines, although exact fitment depends on the vehicle and engine configuration.<\/p>\n<p>Examples of applications documented in BMW catalogues include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BMW 1 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 2 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 3 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 4 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 5 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 6 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW 7 Series<\/li>\n<li>BMW X1<\/li>\n<li>BMW X3<\/li>\n<li>BMW X4<\/li>\n<li>BMW X5<\/li>\n<li>BMW X6<\/li>\n<li>BMW Z4<\/li>\n<li>Selected BMW M models<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For example, RealOEM records the part on BMW <strong>F01 730i and 740i<\/strong>, as well as the <strong>F80 M3 with the S55 engine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Because the same gasket can appear across different engine families, <strong>VIN verification is recommended before ordering<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Signs of a BMW Oil Filter Housing Gasket Leak<\/h2>\n<p>If your BMW has an oil leak around the front or side of the engine, the oil filter housing gasket should be inspected.<\/p>\n<p>Common signs include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Oil around the oil filter housing<\/strong><br \/>\nFresh or accumulated engine oil around the housing can indicate a deteriorated gasket.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Oil smell from the engine bay<\/strong><br \/>\nLeaking oil can reach hot engine components and create a noticeable smell.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Oil level dropping<\/strong><br \/>\nA persistent external oil leak can cause the engine oil level to fall between services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Oil residue on surrounding components<\/strong><br \/>\nOil can spread from the housing area to nearby components, making the original leak difficult to identify without proper inspection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Visible gasket deterioration<\/strong><br \/>\nDuring inspection, an old gasket may appear hardened, flattened or damaged.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Replace the Gasket With a Genuine BMW Part?<\/h2>\n<p>Using the correct gasket is important because the oil filter housing operates within the engine&#8217;s lubrication system and is exposed to engine oil and heat.<\/p>\n<p>The genuine BMW <strong>11428637821<\/strong> is designed specifically for the applicable BMW oil filter housing configuration. It is also the current replacement for <strong>11427537293<\/strong> in BMW parts catalogues.<\/p>\n<h2>Buy BMW Oil Filter Housing Gasket 11428637821 in Nairobi<\/h2>\n<p>Looking for a <strong>BMW oil filter housing gasket in Nairobi<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>Bavarian Trading Company Limited supplies BMW spare parts in Nairobi, including genuine and OEM-quality engine service and repair components.<\/p>\n<p>We are located at <strong>Adams Arcade, off Ngong Road, Nairobi<\/strong>, with both a BMW-focused spare-parts shop and garage.<\/p>\n<h3>Order BMW Gasket 11428637821 Today<\/h3>\n<p>If your BMW is leaking oil around the oil filter housing, don&#8217;t replace the wrong component.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact Bavarian Trading Company Limited and order BMW Oil Filter Housing Gasket 11428637821.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Send us your <strong>BMW VIN\/chassis number<\/strong> or vehicle details and we can help confirm the correct gasket for your engine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Need the gasket fitted?
