Mahle OE Pistons, Bearings, Filters & Gaskets for BMW, VW, LS, WRX

What This Mahle Collection Covers

Mahle supports OE replacement service and serious engine builds with parts engineered around bore size, compression ratio, ring package, bearing clearance and vehicle application.

Mahle Pistons and Ring Sets

Fitment and product selection

Forged piston and ring packages serve LS, EcoBoost, Subaru EJ, BMW S54 and S65, Honda F20C, Mitsubishi 4B11T, 2JZ and big block combinations. Confirm bore, stroke, rod length, pin size, dish volume and target compression before ordering.

Engine Bearings and Rebuild Sealing

Fitment and product selection

Choose Mahle bearings and gaskets by exact engine code, journal size and oversize or undersize specification. Oil control, correct clearance and clean sealing surfaces matter as much as the part selection.
