This week we're replacing yet another leaky gasket and it's a big one! Time to put in a fresh oil pan gasket and stop those leaks! Plus we also reinstall my catless downpipes, perform an oil change and adjust a rattling wastegate. It's Bimmer Time!

Dude, I picked up so many tips from this video. Just informative all around to watch someone take these things apart. And zip ties are clutch for damn near everything!! Keep the vids coming.
Thanks my friend, much appreciated! Glad you found some helpful hints inside! Apologies for the ton of terrible camera work, we'll get better I promise!
Thanks Rob!

Thxs for the content…..I have a 2011 135i. Other than the oil pan gasket….what are the other gasket that generally need swappin. Thxs!
Oh man, pretty much all of them. Definitely want to do your Oil Filter Housing one. These cars are super needy so good luck. I ended up doing this oil pan again in about 40K miles. It wasn't bad but it had started leaking a bit again.
You cant remove the subframe on the 135?
You can, I haven't seen this in a long time so I'm not sure why you would ask that.
@BimmerTV 2008 135i N54 My mechanic said he has to remove the subframe. I will show him your video.
Sucks that the video is more about a guy rather than a repair worthless
Are the control arm bolts re-usable when putting everything back together?
Sumps should be tightened corner to corner
Right on, thanks for the tip!
Where are you guys located?
This shop was in Nashua NH. Jeff and his partner then opened an official shop in Pelham, New England Speed Factory which has since moved to Newton NH.
We're working hard to get better at making these videos and I've bought 4 GoPros and a DSLR in the last less than 2 years so things will keep improving! Thanks for tuning in!
Truth!
Awesome guys😁😁😁😁
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
With 40 years of owning and maintaining vehicles including MG's, Triumps, Jaguars, Z-cars, I've NEVER, EVER had to replace a freeking oil pan gasket unless I did an engine rebuild. Now, my cheap assed 128i needs one at 84k miles at 1000 bucks to have it done. This is a great video and shows exactly why BMW's SUCK! NOTHING is simple except a fat wallet!
Lol, they sure are needy! Glad you found the video helpful! Mine has actually started to leak again already the tiniest bit. We're going to be replacing the rod bearings very soon and will be putting in another new OPG when we do.
Do you know if it's the same process for the n55 135i?
Pretty much yes.
Thanks? How long did it take robget the oil pan out. Going to attempt to change the rod bearings this weekend
@@dudedue987theman This was actually filmed last winter so I'm not exactly sure. Probably in the 3 hour range is what I'm thinking. Time starts to blur when doing jobs like this lol.
Oh ok not bad at all I'll have around 12 hours of lift time to do the job.
@@dudedue987theman If you're fairly familiar with these cars that should be plenty. Most of the time consuming bit is removing suspension components as I'm sure you're aware. Good luck!
