Genuine BMW 16-13-7-167-538 Fuel Vapor Canister

The Genuine BMW 16-13-7-167-538 Vapor Canister is a factory OEM component designed as part of your vehicle's Evaporative Emission Control (EVAP) system. This canister is a plastic container filled with activated charcoal, which absorbs fuel vapors from the gas tank. This genuine BMW part is designed for 2007-2008 BMW vehicles.

Function and Purpose:

• Stores and recycles gasoline vapors for combustion rather than releasing them as pollutants
• Vent lines from the fuel tank pass fumes to the vapor storage canister, which stores them until the vehicle starts, then releases vapors through a purge valve into the intake manifold
• Helps reduce emissions and improves fuel efficiency
• Prevents harmful hydrocarbon emissions from escaping into the atmosphere
• Essential for passing emissions testing and maintaining proper check engine light operation

Key Features:

• Genuine BMW OEM quality ensures exact fit and proper function
• Manufacturer part number: 16-13-7-167-538 (also written as 16137167538)
• Direct replacement for original equipment vapor canister
• Constructed with durable materials to withstand heat and fuel vapor exposure
• Integrated mounting provisions for secure installation

This vapor canister is a critical emissions control component that prevents gasoline vapors from entering the atmosphere while your BMW is parked or running. When the charcoal canister fails, it can trigger the check engine light, cause excessive fuel odors, and result in failed emissions inspections. Replace your worn or damaged vapor canister with this genuine BMW part to restore proper EVAP system operation and maintain your vehicle's environmental compliance.
