Swirl Flap Blanking Plates Aluminum Set of 6 with Premium Viton Gasket for BMW E46 E60
Upgrade your BMW’s intake system with a six‑piece set of swirl flap blanking plates. Crafted from durable aluminum and paired with a Viton gasket, these plates provide a reliable, long‑lasting seal that helps prevent debris and worn swirl flaps from causing performance issues.
Designed for BMW models E46, E60, E61, E65, X3, and X5 and compatible with the M57TU and M47TU engine families, this kit features six 33mm plates to fit larger swirl flap configurations used on engines manufactured since 2005. Note: for 2004 models, two swirl flap sizes were used, so measure your intake manifold hole to confirm compatibility. If you’re unsure, our team can help verify the right fit for your vehicle.
By blanking off the swirl flaps, you can reduce the risk of swirl flap failure causing vacuum leaks, misfires, and rough idling. It also simplifies maintenance and can contribute to a more consistent throttle response when you’re tuning or repairing the intake system. This kit is a practical, cost‑effective solution for keeping your BMW running smoothly without the recurring swirl flap concerns.
