Detailed Product Description

The Mahle HS54414 cylinder head gasket set is engineered to meet OEM standards, providing a reliable seal between the engine block and cylinder head. The multi-layered steel (MLS) construction of the cylinder head and exhaust manifold gaskets offers excellent resistance to heat and pressure, which is critical for maintaining engine integrity. The intake manifold gasket is made from molded rubber, ensuring a tight seal to prevent air and coolant leaks. This gasket set does not include cylinder head bolts, so those must be sourced separately. Designed for torque to yield applications, the gaskets accommodate proper bolt stretch and sealing during installation.

This gasket set is compatible with a range of BMW vehicles, including the 3 Series models such as 323Ci, 323i, 323is, 325Ci, 325i, 325xi, 328Ci, 328i, 330Ci, 330i, and 330xi. It also fits 5 Series models like 525i, 528i, and 530i, as well as the BMW X5 and Z3. The Mahle HS54414 is ideal for engine rebuilds or repairs requiring a full gasket replacement to restore proper sealing and engine performance.
