Detailed Description

The Apex VCS950 is an engine valve cover used in BMW engine service where the original cover has cracked, warped, or no longer seals properly. This part number VCS950 covers a broad range of BMW fitments, including 2012-2016 BMW 328i, 2013-2018 BMW 320i, and 2012-2016 BMW 528i applications, along with X1, X3, X4, X5, Z4, 228i, and 428i models. Because the fitment notes specify use with a valve cover gasket, proper sealing components should be matched to the engine during repair.

The part number VCS950 should be verified against the vehicle’s engine configuration and the fitment notes before installation.
