I had replaced few of these and learned few tricks. It's easier to disconnect the steering rack from the subframe than disconnect the steering column from the rack. Before putting up the oil pan, use couple zip ties to tie the gasket to the pan so it does not move around. You can cut them off after hand started couple of bolts. Do not use the old bolts; use new bolts. Aluminum bolts after been stretched, they break easily. Since the subframe dropped, if you haven't done so, it's the best time to replace the engine mounts and water pump / thermostat. From experience, engine mounts and water pump likely to go bad before 100k miles. For xdrive car, it requires to remove two front axles and front differential. It's also the best time to replace two O-rings and two seals.
Here’s a great DIY for doing the oil pan gasket on an E90 328xi. Slightly different than N54 335xi but it covers axle removal etc. and lists all the parts to buy.

Geesus, that’s a lot of work just for an oil pan. I’m dreading this. I have oil spots on the floor. I hope it’s just the oil pan gasket and not the rear main. Thanks for the awesome video!
Really nice work on your video. I/We did this job recently and built my own support using a 2X6 board as the main support. Short pieces of 2X6 in the fender slots on both sides. Notched the upright pieces on either end to secure the main support. Toe screw them together. Lag bolt through the tow hook into the wood. Worked great. You just gotta make sure it's all nice and tight. I'm older now and crawling around on the garage floor ain't as easy as it used to be. Now I get some of you youngsters to help with a steak dinner as payment. They learn and I get the job done a lot cheaper. I still have to get dirty some but I enjoy passing along some of my "Can Do" spirit so they aren't so intimidated by such jobs.
thanks bro, my water pump and oil pan gasket and oil housing gasket all went out at once. I’m definitely gonna use this video instead of paying for a shop.
SWEET! Save that money, friend. I get a huge sense of fulfillment from doing jobs myself, I think you'll find the same with this, even though it is time-consuming, this job isn't too hard!
I just used this video as reference to change my gasket... I regret not taking it to the shop cuz that's life I'm never getting back lol. I'm kinda burnt working on my car tbh but I love driving it.
@@TheBimmerBarn You wouldn't by chance have a video on servicing the N54 DCT transmission would you? I searched your vid's and didn't see one but worth asking. thanks
My Brain: You just jack it up, remove maybe a plastic splash shield and the oil pan should be at the bottom and you just unbolt it, attach new one, right? BMW: Start by jacking the car up and remove the wheels of course.. because everything done on a BMW requires this. Then you'll need 6 different sized Torx bits, multiple special pullers and brackets, remove 8 parts, 3 sub assemblies and 1 sub frame... THEN the job begins.
Thanks for the help you provided with this video. The n55 has another trans coolant line hold down other than the 2 under the radiator to the left where it bends 90o. You guys who do this on the ground must have masochistic tendencies because it was a biotch doing it with a lift trying to manipulate the torque wrench while getting at the pan screws. Thanks again
07 e92 335i and doing this job rn at 207,xxx miles, being a manual made it just a tad easier . Ill definitely use zips tie to secure gasket when installing.
Buying one in the next couple of months. Brushing up on my knowledge of everything I’ll need to fix. Although this job looks tedious is doesn’t look especially difficult after dropping the subframe everything seems to be right in front of you
You can hold the gasket on with electrical ties, three will do it, then when you have fitted the sump place a few bolts in without tightening them, then cut and remove the ties.
Thanks for this great video! I've got a 2011 335i with 77K miles. My valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket are leaking and I plan to replace both myself. Regarding the oil pan gasket job, what other items in the "while you're in there" category would you replace, given the age + mileage of my car? Motor + tranny mounts? Water pump? If I didn't go with BMW parts, what brand would you recommend for these parts? I see engine + tranny mount kits at FCP Euro for $200 to $300 and water pumps for around $400.
If you're shopping fcp, most all of the brands they sell are trustworthy. While you're in there, it's a good time to replace the motor mounts, and if you have the money, water pump or thermostat too. Otherwise, most other things on the bottom of the engine can be serviced on their own. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Nice tutorial ! Thank you :) Question : isn't it easier to unbolt the steering rack from the subframe ? Doing so, the steering lines and sterring colmun might all stay bolted. To keep in place the oil pan gasket, you can secure it with a couple of zip ties. Once some screws are installed, simply cut the ties ;)
Good question, if yoh leave the steering rack up like that, it makes it more difficult to maneuver the oil pan out. The more room you have, the better! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment Stephane 👍
Quick question: after replacing the oil pan gasket, are there any issues that may come After? I replaced my oil pan gasket three days ago but I noticed my steering wheel buttons are not working and there is a squeaky noise coming from the middle of the steering wheel. Also, the engine temperature warning light came out today? Any thoughts or suggestions Thank you in advance.
Engine temp light might be from a sensor you forgot to plug back in, but the steering stuff sounds like a steering angle sensor, common problem. Hope that helps!
@@TheBimmerBarn thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I read the problem with the steering wheel could be something with the clutch spring.
Yep, need to do it eventually. Think I'll need to do the vcg first though. There are so many connections, bolts and shifted parts and assemblies that I'm not only going to bkmk and watch this and others, and research, but I'll be compiling lists of steps, do a punch in and separate punch out list with every procedure + torque value. I'd like to keep my car, I guess, so will be looking for all the normal wear parts I can, to R&R or else upgrade. Engine mounts, for instance, and probably subframe mounts. And I have a pronounced waste-gate rattle. Maybe it's time to go to upgraded twins? Catted-downpipes? Shoot, there's so much to do to bring my car back to spec or better, wish I had a lift! Jack + stands gets old. I'd even consider building a lift if the right design, within my skillset came along. 2007/e90/335i (*pre-lci/n54)
Subframe might be shaped a little differently, but all the same rules apply. Remove steering column bolt, engine mounts, steering lines, etc.. Good luck!
Im getting ready to do this too on my F30 N55, since we have an electric steering rack it might be pretty easy to just remove the thing completely so its out of the way. Thoughts?
@@rise_of_a_godhey, I know it’s a year later but do you have any advice for doing this on the n55? I’m about to try and tackle this job whenever the rest of these parts come in.
I updated the description with the OE part number, and an Amazon tow hook which should work the same. The engine support bar I got at Harbor Freight like you said. Good luck Valente! and thanks for watching :)
@@TheBimmerBarn much appreciated. I’m finding it to be easier than your instructions. Like the screws near the steering rack are not screws they are the plastic pop out things. I forget what they are called. The subframe has different mounting points. Transmission cooler lines are not in the way they are high on the radiator. Definitely engineering improvements.
You'll want to remove the belt (as if you were going to servicing it) before removing the power steering pulley. Reinstalling the belt is done by using the tensioner pulley and a t50 torx socket. Hope that helps!
Sorry, I am in the middle of this now I have the oil pan off (hanging) but I don’t quite have enough clearence. Doing it on jack stands isn’t helping either. Lol maybe need a buddy to help finagle the sun frame while I try get pan out. But I just dropped steering linkage, didn’t seem give anymore clearence now I’m going o loosen control arm bolts.

Hello, I have a BMW 2009 335 i convertible and it is leaking oil from below the gasket on top of the engine. They are new, the oil is leaking from below and I need to change it. Can you help me to know what it is? Thanks.
hey im following your guide for my own n54, i also have the auto trans with the 3 E10 bolts that go into the pan. do you know what torque + angle they take?
I think it works when there is a channel and the surface is made for the rtv, otherwise, it's not a replacement for a flat rubber/metal gasket as intended from factory. Great question, I see it over-used sometimes and it can cause a leak.
@@TheBimmerBarn I guess my comment was more with putting the compound in addition to the stock gasket in a very thin layer. I suspect that the expansion and contracting of the aluminum parts over time is what contributes to the leaks coming back. I’m changing mine soon, so I’ll be the test case for this idea :)
Super thorough and detailed! Thank you! Any tips if I want to fully remove the subframe? Are the control arms the only thing holding it up at that point?

Nowadays that job is not easy as dropping the oil pan. For the person wanting to keep his garage floor clean that's what it takes. This DIY vid is for the one who doesn't want to spend "beaucoup" moula at the service shop.
I've got a bmw repair shop near me that quoted me $800 for the job. That doesn't seem so bad compared to the dealer. But just knowing it's still all labor is a tough swallow.
@@TheFrenchPug There is so much - $800 is liveable, esp if they'd combine much of the labor and do some things exposed during this service.
