Detailed Description

Dorman 263-141 is a standard replacement engine valve cover made to match the fit and function of the original part on select BMW performance models. The injection-molded plastic construction is designed for consistent fitment, while the painted black finish and heat-resistant material selection support use in demanding engine conditions. This cover is intended for perimeter mounting and is listed for DOHC cylinder head applications.

Use this valve cover on 2015-2018 BMW M3, 2015-2020 BMW M4, and 2019-2021 BMW M2 when the original cover is damaged, warped, or no longer sealing as intended. If you are searching for a BMW M3 valve cover replacement, BMW M4 engine valve cover, or BMW M2 valve cover by part number 263-141, this listing matches the confirmed vehicle fitment.

This part cross-references URO 11127846359 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Oil seepage from a warped or cracked valve cover
  • Loss of sealing at the cylinder head perimeter
  • Heat-related deterioration of the original cover
  • Fitment issues caused by a damaged OE valve cover
  • Replacement needs after inspection reveals cover deformation

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm engine code and vehicle fitment before installation, especially on BMW M3, BMW M4, and BMW M2 applications. Inspect the mating surface, gasket area, and surrounding components for damage or contamination before installing the new cover. Because mounting hardware, grommets, hold-down tabs, and the oil filler cap are not included, transfer or source the required related components as needed for the repair.

Dorman states that this replacement valve cover has undergone extensive testing and is built from quality materials for fit and heat resistance. It is a standard replacement part engineered to match the original equipment form and function for the listed BMW applications.
