What components are included in the MILIPARTS intake manifold kit?

The kit is supplied as an assembly to minimize installation steps and avoid sourcing multiple parts. MILIPARTS ships the manifold with the essential items needed to replace the original unit.

How does this intake manifold ensure durability and compatibility?

The assembly uses high-grade aluminium and undergoes bench testing aimed at matching original specifications. That approach reduces the risk of fitment problems and premature failure compared with low-quality aftermarket castings.

• Aluminium construction improves heat resistance and longevity over cheaper plastics.
• Manufactured to match OEM mounting points, sensor locations, and runner geometry.
• Pre-tested components for consistent operation of swirl flaps and sensors.

What should I check before installing to guarantee a correct fit?

Verify your vehicle’s model, year, and engine code to ensure compatibility with the M272 series and the listed part numbers. Inspect the intake ports, vacuum connections, and electrical fittings on your car to confirm they match the manifold’s connections.

• Confirm engine is V6 M272 (272) 2.5L / 3.0L / 3.5L and compare part numbers 2721402401 / 2721402201.
• Check that vacuum lines, electrical connectors, and mounting studs align with the new manifold.
• Replace gaskets and torqued fasteners per manufacturer specifications during installation.
