Description
Monitor your BMW's oil temperature or oil pressure with the MMX Performance Oil Temperature & Pressure Gauge Adaptor, designed for compatible BMW N54, N55, and S55 engines. This precision-machined adaptor replaces the original equipment (OE) plug on the factory oil cooler thermostat assembly, providing a dedicated 1/8 NPT port for installing an auxiliary oil temperature or oil pressure sensor.
Manufactured from aircraft-grade T6061 billet aluminum and finished in gloss black anodizing, the MMX Performance adaptor combines durable construction with a clean, OEM-style appearance. Its 1/8 NPT female port accommodates compatible automotive oil pressure or oil temperature senders, allowing you to monitor important engine oil data during spirited street driving, track sessions, or operation with increased engine performance.
For BMW enthusiasts running tuned or modified N54, N55, and S55 engines, monitoring oil temperature and pressure can help identify potentially concerning operating conditions. This adaptor provides a convenient sensor installation point without requiring modifications to the oil pan, sump, or engine block.
Designed for installation at the factory oil cooler thermostat assembly, the MMX Performance adaptor offers a practical solution for adding an auxiliary gauge to a compatible BMW engine. It can also be paired with the MMX Performance Oil Thermostat Housing Cover Kit for a coordinated engine bay appearance.
Important: The oil pressure or temperature sender and gauge are sold separately. Confirm your engine code and oil cooler thermostat housing configuration before ordering.
