STC2045 | Front Cover Gasket - 2.5 Diesel BMW M51 | Range Rover P38

STC2045 is a front cover gasket that seals the joint between the engine front plate and the timing chain cover on 2.5 litre BMW M51 diesel engines. It prevents oil escaping from the timing cover area and helps keep contaminants away from the timing chain and associated components. Failure typically presents as oil seepage at the front of the engine and should be addressed to avoid oil loss and potential timing component contamination.

If you are unsure of compatibility with your vehicle, you can also confirm by checking against your V.I.N. Simply reach out to us with your V.I.N and desired part number via our Contact page or use our Finding Part Numbers page.

Replace the front cover gasket whenever the timing cover is removed or if there is any sign of oil leak at the front of the engine; inspect the gasket during timing chain or front cover service and renew if deteriorated to ensure a reliable seal.
