Description
The MMX Performance BMW F-Chassis N55 Oil Sump Baffle Kit (MMR20-0501) is a must-have upgrade for owners of the BMW M135i, M235i, 335i, and 435i equipped with the N55 engine, especially for those who take their vehicles to the track or engage in aggressive road driving. The N55 engine is well-known for being prone to oil starvation under hard cornering and braking, which can result in catastrophic engine failure. This oil sump baffle kit is designed to prevent those issues by ensuring consistent oil pressure and protecting your engine’s longevity.
Under high lateral G-forces, such as during hard braking, oil can pool at the front of the oil pan, causing the pickup to run dry and potentially leading to engine damage in a fraction of a second. The MMX Performance baffle kit solves this problem by employing advanced oil control technology. With seven sophisticated one-way oil control flaps and carefully engineered baffling, this system ensures that oil remains evenly distributed, minimizing surge and maintaining constant oil pressure even in demanding driving conditions.
Manufactured from T-6061 anodized aluminum, the MMX Performance oil sump baffle is not only highly effective but also lightweight and durable. Unlike other aftermarket solutions that require welding, this baffle is a simple, bolt-on installation, making it a more accessible and user-friendly upgrade. With thousands of miles of testing on both track and road, we’ve proven its effectiveness in solving oil surge problems under hard braking, and it’s the ultimate insurance policy for any N55-powered F-Series car driven hard.
