Protect your BMW diesel from costly intake failures

The well-known weak point on BMW 2.0d four-cylinder units is the intake butterfly system inside the manifold. Over time these plastic components wear, loosen and can be drawn into the combustion chamber. Our precision alloy blanking solution replaces the moving parts with a solid, secure plug so you can enjoy peace of mind, clean airflow and long-term reliability.

Why enthusiasts choose this intake manifold blanking kit

  • Prevents foreign object ingestion and potential engine damage on N47 and N47S diesel motors
  • Restores a simple, robust intake path for better drivability and reliability
  • Perfect preventative maintenance for high-mileage 116d, 118d, 120d, 123d, 318d, 320d, 520d, X1 and X3 models on E-series platforms
  • Direct-fit alloy bung that reuses the factory actuator housing for secure retention
  • CNC machined from billet alloy for a precise, rattle-free fit
  • Supplied with all necessary gaskets and seals for a proper refit

  • 1 x Billet aluminium intake port blanking plug
