This ELRING Sump Plug is designed for automotive repair and maintenance, offering a secure and reliable solution for sealing the oil drain hole in compatible BMW, WIESMANN, ALPINA, MORGAN, and ROLLS-ROYCE vehicles. Its key benefit is providing a precise fit with its M18x1,5x12 thread size and hexagon socket bolt head, ensuring leak-free operation.

The sump plug seals the oil drain hole in the oil pan, allowing for the controlled draining of engine oil during maintenance and preventing leaks when the engine is running.
Yes, the ELRING Sump Plug includes a seal ring to ensure a proper seal and prevent oil leaks.
You will need a hexagon socket wrench (Allen key or socket bit) of the appropriate size to fit the bolt head/nut design for installation and removal.
Verify the thread size (M18x1,5x12) and consult the detailed compatibility list provided for BMW, WIESMANN, ALPINA, MORGAN, and ROLLS-ROYCE models, or cross-reference the OEM part numbers.
It is strongly recommended to always use a new seal ring with a sump plug during each oil change to ensure a reliable seal and prevent leaks. This plug comes with a new one.
'M18' refers to the metric thread diameter of 18mm. '1,5' is the thread pitch (distance between threads), and '12' typically indicates the length of the thread in millimeters.
Yes, this is an ELRING branded sump plug, manufactured by ELRING, a known supplier of automotive parts.
Ensure you are using the correct plug for your vehicle and that the threads on both the plug and the oil pan are clean and undamaged. Attempt to thread it by hand first to check alignment and prevent cross-threading.
Check that the seal ring is correctly seated and undamaged. Verify that the sump plug is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification. If the leak persists, the oil pan threads may be damaged, or the plug may be faulty.
If threads are stripped, the sump plug will need to be replaced. If the oil pan threads are stripped, a more extensive repair, such as using a thread repair kit or replacing the oil pan, may be necessary.
Setup: To install the ELRING Sump Plug, ensure the vehicle is safely supported and the engine oil has been drained. Clean the threads on the oil pan and the new sump plug. Apply a small amount of thread sealant (if recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, though often not needed with a new seal ring) and screw in the sump plug by hand to avoid cross-threading. Tighten using a hexagon socket wrench to the manufacturer's specified torque. Do not overtighten.
Compatibility: Verify the thread size (M18x1,5x12) and the vehicle's make, model, and year against the product's compatibility list or OEM part numbers (e.g., 07119905428, 11137536578). This part is designed for specific applications including BMW X5 (E70, F15), X6 (E71, E72), 5 Series (E60, F10, F11), 7 Series (F01, G11), and other listed makes like WIESMANN, ALPINA, MORGAN, and ROLLS-ROYCE.
Care: The sump plug itself requires minimal care. After removal during an oil change, inspect the threads for damage. Always use a new seal ring when reinstalling to ensure optimal sealing. Replace the sump plug if the threads are damaged or the plug itself shows signs of wear.
