Used this video yesterday and today with the parts linked to complete on my 2016 F80 under jack stands. I appreciate everyone at FCP Euro. Good looking out for the BMW community.
@@fcpeuro I was scared of some crazy maintenance bill. My 335 was already getting money dumped into it. Sold that project. Picked up a super clean 16 M4. Bone stick. 😎
Hi, i did the gasket replacement following your video. Btw i loosened the bolts on the engine mount bracket. This made the job a lot easier as i was able to lift it 1 inch out of the way. After install there is a small amount of oil drilling from the rear driver side bolt. It’s the medium length bolt in the kit on the corner of the pan. I am assuming this means that my rear main seal has failed. My car has been running 25psi for the last 30k miles
Hey, thanks for this awesome tutorial. I’m right in the middle of doing it myself and I was wondering why the steering shaft needed to be in the steering straight position in relation to the torque sensor, because I thought the steering rack will only connect to the coupler in one way because of the way it slides into each other? Thanks! 25:10
I did it on jack stands in and out 6 hours. Now to preface I am a dealer tech. But this is probably one of the easiest bmw pans to do if you have the right tools.
Why is this procedure different than oil pan gasket jobs on other BMWs where you can just let the subframe hang on the suspension and slide the oil pan out?
While you have access to the coolers. Why not clean off the surface? And that bent oil cooler. A little voice in my head keeps saying, "change it!!!!!".
Please if someone knows where the coolant is leaking… It’s a 2017 BMW 330i X drive. It’s basically just pouring out as it is poured in towards the back of the engine area under the car. It won’t allow me to post a video to show you but, I need some help.
Hehehehe. ok riddle me this what about using grey or a different type of flexible gasket maker like reisnol or the other one that stays tacky and not use the oil pan gasket at all. Just the squeezy cheese stuff? Or the grey stuff they use on sealing lets say a transmission case together.

Love your videos!
Would love to see this DIY on a B58 car
What are those pliers you used to release the power steering harness hold down clips at 12:47? Does FCP sell them?
Great video. Will use! Do not hold the head of the torque wrench. It will throw the value off.
Dang… not that I have an M3, but this job straight up requires a lift.
I could not imagine doing this on roll-ups or jack stands.

can you do a f32 435xi oil pan gasket tutorial please!

How many miles on it
This M3 was nearing the 100k mark!
What’s the price for job like this
$1600 around me 😭
@@f3irty278 thank you 😊

Definition of OVER ENGINEERED
Ridiculous how complicated BMW has made what used to be a simple task.
Good video...bmws suck.
