F30/F32/N55 Oil Filter Housing Gasket DIY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- At roughly 90k miles, my 435i started leaking oil from the front of the engine. Having owned a few other BMWs, I knew that the oil filter housing gasket was a known issue.

Excellent step by step video...thanks for talking about the oil priming.
u are amazing bro, i have an N55 F10(2012 535I xdrive) and i’m building her to be a stage 2+, however i have a leaky oil filter housing gasket and i couldn’t find a video i wanted to follow till i found this one, thank you much!!
Perfect video. Best one I’ve seen for this process. Thanks!
Great video!
Great video man thank you!
Awesome video bro, going to do this to my 135i this week. Two questions, do you recommend to replace the belt if there's little to no signs of any oil getting onto it? And any issues at all after this replacement?
edit: Also thanks so much for providing torque specs, literally nobody does this and it saves me 15 minutes of doing internet research and struggling to find a conclusion after 4 different numbers from forums and what not lol.
No need to replace the belt if it still looks good. Ive driven the car another 10k miles since this DIY and no issues
Great video! I'm going to be attempting this soon. Did you drain any oil and coolant before starting the job?
Oil, yes. Coolant, no.
thanks for the vid. were you seeing any oil in your coolant prior to the gasket changes?
Nope
That would be caused by a head gasket.
Do you leave the coolant reservoir cap off while bleeding the cooling system? or does it not matter
I left it on
Hello I am writing to you from France I have watched your video and I did like you 500ml in the filter housing when reassembling I took the opportunity to drain the engine I started and let it run on site 20 minutes then road test of 20km at 2000rpm and for the moment nothing to report
Glad to hear! I'm still going along with no issues as well! I've added another 5k miles.
@@tuned_auto thank you for your very precious feedback
@@tuned_auto hello friend do you have facebook i would like to be in contact with you and how many kilometers since the change of the seal
@@alanabt2494 yes, join my group “F30/F32 Owners”. I am the only admin of the group.
@@tuned_auto i just asked
Don't you need to replace the air intake manifold gaskets when you change out the oil filter housing gaskets?
No
Yes, the guidance is those gaskets are not to be reused. Few bucks for a new set.
Any thoughts on priming the oil as some folks have suggested?
I'm 2k miles in with no catastrophic failure like some talk about. Maybe I'll do an oil analysis on the next change..
I also didn’t prime the oil
do you guys know how to prime the oil?
@@RayFiore13 I found a guide on RUclips how to do it. The process wasn't too bad with the aid of a small flathead to disconnect the fuel injector wiring.
be careful guys I cracked the bottom bolt hole for the cooler. it took no effort to crack the aluminum. luckily my friend can weld it
Hey anyway I can contact you, im from MA too and I have a few questions about that
Sure thing! Do you have Facebook? I'm the admin for this group facebook.com/groups/FSeriesOwners/. Shoot me an IM
