  • In this video, I will be doing a oil filter housing gasket and oil o-rings replacement on the BMW 318CI M43 engine. This applies to the other M43 engines out there. This oil leak is a very common oil leak and is a simple and easy repair! Just watch my video and find out how.

    I have the same engine with the same problem. You made your own gasket but I was able to buy one. Also when I bought a new bush it came with the O-rings already on it..which is great. But I also ordered two O-rings. guess a good spares.
    I see so many videos for the larger engine - glad I got this motor as it is much easier to work on!

    Thanks, nice video! It's quite rare to find DYI videos for my M43 engine (there's a lot of DYI videos for E46 320+, unfortunately 316s and 318s are quite different under the hood...)
    +1 for next video with M43 :)

      Hey thank you for watching my video! I really appreciate it. That's part of the reason why I did this video, hardly any on this engine. Mainly on the new engine. I hope to get some more repair/maintenance videos on this car soon.
      Again, many thanks!

    I wouldn't be using sealer. The standard BMW paper gasket is perfect, just a smear of grease either side and fit it. Sealer can become dislodged and make it's way into the engine, blocking an oil way.

      There's usually a pressure valve within the oil filter housing. Potentially clogged up with gunk?
