www.ebay.com/i... Oil Pan gasket by ELRING
You will need parts anyway why not buy it from us, it helps the channel
Thank you
Hey guys, so here is a step by step on how to replace oil pan gasket on BMW e9x, it is also very similar to 128i, 328i, 528i (n51, n52 engine) and identical on 135i and 535i (n54 engine). It is pretty difficult job so watch the video first before starting the job and decide for yourself if you can handle it.
Thank you for watching, if you have any questions ask in the comments

Man, I must say THANK YOU SO MUCH, over this past weekend I did my son's 335is oil pan, I did remove everything on Friday and put all back together on Sunday following your direction on this video, everything went very well, The oil pan was a bit difficult to remove and put it back in place, but I already knew that from your video, Thanks a million for this video really priceless for many people including myself, you Sr saved me a few thousand dollars.
You can tell this guy is a pro not by the work he did but but the oil pour at the end and didn’t loose a drop
On a serious note thanks for the guide this is tomorrow’s job
You can use zip ties to hold the gasket to the pan then just cut and remove them after you get a couple bolts started.
dude, you’re one of the legit BMW mechanics in UA-cam Gotta.get a safer shop friend. You could get hit by cars. just sayin, ok?
This dude deserves a million subs. Simple
Thank you🙌 hopefully in due time😁
You are a beast, doing an OPG on the street is amazing!
Yes working on Main Street like a boss! But I think you should work in parking lot if possible to avoid someone hitting your car while your under it! Ppl don’t know how to drive but very useful used this video to do mine! Thanks a lot keep posting videos! Very informative
This guy is phenomenal, the way he ad engine oil with out the funnel, that can tell you a lot about him, and the way he explains everything is phenomenal, he is a 5 start general. The best💪🙏🕊️✌️
Thank you, happy to help👍🙌
Great video! Can’t believe you did it outside near the road. Amazing skills!
The BEST n54 OPG walkthrough. Periodt. Thanks🤴
🙌
This video helped quite a lot for my successful oil pan gasket replacement on an e92 335i. i like the 3 bolt trick on install! Thank you very much for your super helpful contribution to the community! It's also a bit easier on a 6mt as there are less trans oil lines in the way and i was able to get to all bolts fairly easily from underneath with wobble extensions.
Glad to hear it, happy to help👍
You are a man and a half for doing this on the street. Need to get mine done at 15 years, 91k miles
A true wizard! These are the best BMW DIY videos on UA-cam Tim you rock!
Thank you, appreciate your feedback🙌
Did this job for one of my customers as i am an automotive tech. Thanks to your video i turned his car around back on the streets in 1 day with no more leak!
How long did it take you?
Yah this is the best BMW e90 oil pan video. I've watched many. LOL
Very good diy video. And doing this on the street is definitely BEAST MODE 🙏
Bro i love your DIY videos instead of the other guys videos .
Thank you, appreciate it👍
This video inspired me to just pay the labor. You’re awesome for doing this in traffic lol
wow, very informative. But I don't think I could ever think to do a job like that on the side of the road. That's crazy!!
That's gangster
Welcome to the life of owning an old bimmer. They will have you changing the headgasket in the middle of the highway😂😂
I own 2 of them btw...🤭🤭
Fantastic video and methodical work ethics on a difficult time consuming job..l hope you told the customer his engine bay was disgusting and a good clean is needed..Cheers Tim
Thank you for the feedback👍
you are a real badass doing this job on the street
Gotta do what we gotta do😁
Thank you very much for this Video. It really helped me changing my gasket on an N53 Motor. You are right, it was even easier than with your N54 Engine here. Didn't have to remove the fan and the belts (electric steering support also eased it up). What I needed to do additionally was to disconnect the steering shaft, only with this I was able to wriggle out the oil pan. Greetings from Germany :-)
Still the goat thank you legend!
🙌
Please post 2008 328xi n52 oil pan! I am so close to fixing my car because of you
I have a 08 535i. This diy video will work for me. Trying to take this task on my self. And also too want to say. Well detail video. Great job bro.
Thanks, good luck with the job👍
I watched your video and was looking for the quick jack system you use
If you have the opportunity to do a DIY on a E90 328iX Drive that would be sweet. I can't find anything very detailed on that one.
U dropped this 👑
I’m not going to lie this is a great video for anyone trying to get into the field. as a automotive tech is would have been best to hold then engine and to removed the entire sub-frame down to have more access to the oil pan without the struggle of the sub-frame in the way of things.just wanted to troughs that out there.
True, more access the better but for me it is faster to do it this way also might be simpler for regular diyer
great job on the street side buddy,, but for safety reasons I would not remove the engine support until subframe is fully in place and bolted tight
Well of course not, when bolts are fully on and the only thing left to do is tighten it a bit with breaker bar it’s enough to remove engine support, but sure safer the better
respect for doing that on the street ! for the gasket use zipties, holds the gasket in place perfectley
This video reminds me of the time I had to change out my transmission in the parking lot of a Burger King… it sucked balls.
Hi again, Tim.
Question: I have the same engine support bar that you used here on order. Do you see any issues using it on a 2008 128i to do this oil pan gasket job?
I'm uneasy about the engine support bar feet and where they will rest on the front fender inside ledges. Can this take the weight of the engine without causing deflection/damage to the body.
Thanks! I hope it has stopped raining in California. Looks crazy there.
Mario
Awesome job ... very informative ... Thank you !!
You said you needed to move the ac compressor out of the way but that is not necessary. Was that a mess up?
Very good video
I've heard this is a more difficult DIY for E90s with XDrive. My local Indy shops estimated $2200. Tempted to try this myself.
Yes on all wheel drive e9x it is absolutely more complex and difficult since you’ll have to remove more components
@@Zeiten ugh RIP. If you can do a video for E90 xDrive that would be awesome! Do you have to change the oil with this job?
I’m not dead wtf😂 this video will come eventually and i have a very good solution to make xdrive oil pan gasket replacement much simpler
@@Zeiten please. Now! 😅 have to do a M135i xdrive pan gasket.
@@Zeitendid this ever come out, need to do my xDrive oil pan gasket and not looking forward to it
And forgot to mention,your new mobile hoist is a big benefit,l bet you didnt hesitate in buying that,but they are not cheap ...anything to make your job l little easier
Had it for awhile i just don’t use it all the time it is very heavy so most time jack and jack stands are the way to go
great video, hope I never to do it on my BMW, just too many leaking all around.
Great video. Funny enough, I'm in the middle of my replacement and I used the zip tie method to secure the gasket - but I took out the subframe.
Why not start the sub frame bolts before the engine is removed from the support.
Zip tie is a good idea 👍
Did you disconnect the steering gear? Also did you remove the oil pump? Thank you. Great video!
No and steering pump is not fully removed, none of the lines are disconnected either
Question for the guys that actually have done this job, the part that is conflicting for me, from all other videos that I watched, they all disconnect the steering shaft, so, I don't have to do that?
No, not necessary at all just follow the steps i showed
hello, do you have a video to change oil pan gasket for x5 e70 M57 engine? thx
You should move to Florida..lot's of BMW's out here, including mine. Could you please tell me the most common problem with BMW 2011 328i E90? Thank you.
I think we’ll make review on e9x soon, there will be all common issues and useful info
I have an e90 328i sulev leaking from the oil pan gasket is this video some what similar to the n51 oil pan replacement?
You can use it as reference, on yours it’s easier, more room but pretty much all the same steps
@@Zeiten thank you sir always giving out the best advice 🙏🏼
Hi ✌🏻how much to change oil pan gasket on a 2013 N55 X5?
Th
Great video bro but not an easy DIY. I would need you when it’s time for me.
Sure thing👍
Man! You are pro. Amazing 😀
😁 thanks
Another great DIY! You need to get a Magic Creeper to put down on the ground to slide around on. I have 2 questions: 1 where did you get your training? You're really good. What is a cost for this oil pan gasket job? I love your videos, you very thorough & precise. KUDOS. you don't even need a funnel for the oil input.
Thanks, i am self trained and have about a decade of experience hands on, so tons of practice is the key, we charge 800$ for oil pan gasket replacement includes parts and labor
@@ZeitenWhere are you located?
Hi. Great video. I was watching other DIYs and all of them took out the control arm and steering column. So that's not necessary?
Well as you can see not necessary at all, in my opinion that’s the easiest and fastest way
@@Zeiten thank you. once more thing, is there a PCV drain hose (going down into the oil pan) that I need to worry about? I have an N54 engine.
No, it is only present on 2006 325i and 330i
Thanks again and keep up the great work!
Thank you
How are you doing an OPG in the street in front of some office? If that was me I would have gotten towed lol.
i have a x5 oil pan leak but there is no Video of it on youtube
If you're still responding to questions here... girlfriend has a 335xi that I fix. In the comments, you wrote that it's much harder but also said you had a trick that made it much easier? Is it still required to drop subframe and deal with transmission? Can you describe the trick? Thx... excellent video BTW... amazing you could do all that on your back.
It’s not a trick exactly, just a technique i use, on all wheel drive bmws to replace oil pan gasket you’ll have to not only drop subframe but completely remove it, then with all proper support you’ll be able to lower oil pan with attached front differential and replace the gasket, it’s not easy job by any means and i must warn you it is dangerous, proper support at multiple points is absolutely necessary. This technique will save a lot of time since you won’t have to remove front axles, differential and front drive shaft
Thanks for the quick reply. So if I understand, you leave axles attached to the steering knuckles... leave them attached to the front diff. Then just lower the oil pan enough to remove the old gasket and put in the new one? So it all stays up high in the vehicle?
I'm guessing that to remove the subframe, you have to remove the control arm bolts. Is that all? I'll watch other videos to see if I can piece it together. But I might just remove the axles and front diff to not mess it all up. It's starting to sound a bit spooky.
Hey boss doing oil pan on my 2011 328 and my mechanic having trouble getting axle off rusted on! Any trucks for him
Good job man
Thank you
Another awesome video, thanks.
The QuickJack is nice to have, especially for your mobile work.
I'll be doing this on my E82 coupe' shortly so it's great to see a Master at work 💪🏻
Thank you
Tim you think you can come over San Diego to replace oil pan gasket on a 2002 BMW X5 3.0i
Great warrior like your jack how much you charge for a job like
Man just watched this video
Damn you tough
I have question for you
I have a 2010 135i n54
Went to put on the new serpentine belt I got fCP Euro It’s made by Continental
The belt is so tight to get on
What’s the best way to get it on
I thank you for your help or advice
Please help me
Another great video Tim. I was inspecting my 2008 328i cabriolet. I noticed some oil leaking where the oil pan meets the transmission housing. Would that be a sign of an oil pan gasket leak? Or is there any other gasket between the oil pan and transmission housing?
Thank you, well rear main seal can cause that leak you described but 95% chance it’s the oil pan gasket
@@Zeiten thanks again Tim. I guess I’ll be rewatching this video to prep for a big job. Keep up the great work! Your videos are amazing and super helpful.
Thank you, appreciate the feedback 👍
Hi i did not see you torquing to spec these bolts, you just randomly tighten them up??
Nothing is random, I’ve done hundreds of those so it comes natural to me but for you I recommend using torque wrench
Will jack stands give you enough clearance? I don’t want buy the quick jack just for this job
Yes but you must be very careful, safety first
Yeah I’m going to attempt it. What’s the minimium height that’s safe do you think it can be done? I might have buy new jack stands I think mine go up to 18” I wish I had a stud like you around me
whats the oil pan bolts torque
So no need to unmount the steering column to drop the subframe ?
Nope
Great Video. Thanks
Great video 👍🏼 is this the same procedure on a 335i n55 e92??
Slight differences but overall yes same procedure
Lol, Good job, real mobile service. Right on the street.
Yep, car’s location doesn’t matter at all
BMW should include a six month UTI crash course upon vehicle purchase.
Eventually this channel will be like that😂
MASTER MECHANIC
Oil pan gasket bolt broke any ideas to get the bolts out?
There is no tension, so you can slowly unscrew it using pick tool or something like that
Do you know the tightening torque in Nm for the oil pan bolts, do they have order aswell ?
Thank's in advance and congratulations for your channel.

Thanks, about 8 NM and 90 degrees but I recommend you to use common sense instead, have seen tons of cars with broken bolts because people wanted to torque it “properly”
Whats is the oil pan torque?
How much is the average price for this job?
wow you do this and are allowed to do this on the side of what appears to be a main road ? Be careful, pretty sure a lot of ordinances don't allow this, plus you could get hit by another car. I have done work outside my house too, but that was a small side road, def a drivway job, or shadetree at minimum. Anyway, just saying
It’s a dead end street, not busy at all and the chances getting hit by a car while fixing a car are pretty much the same as plane crash😂
Is this exactly the same on the E92 model of the 335i?
95% the same
A dub either way, he hits you get money from a lawsuit
How much do you charge for a job like this?
use rubber bands to hold the gasket. Easier to remove.
Does this work on an xi as well? Or what else in involved?
No, all wheel drive is a different story, we’ll shoot it some time, you’ll have to fully remove subframe that’s a first, then either remove axles, differential, front drive shaft or there is another way, you can just spend some extra time on removing oil pan bolts with differential and axles still attached and then oil pan will drop more than enough to replace the gasket
Would this DIY work for the 2006 325i?
Yes it’s even easier on 325i e90, you won’t need to remove power steering pump and over all have more room to work
Are u guys in airzona
No, Los Angeles
hello, how long it takes you to get the job done.
For me it’s about 4-5 hours
What do you charge for that job?
As of today 800$ parts and labor total
I charge 60
What else could be leaking? Mind as well do it all, right?
well with bmw can be oil pan rear main seal oil filter housing gasket and valve cover gasket and or valve cover
Where do you buy the screw that holds the engine with the engine support bar ❓
It’s standard bmw tow hook, you can find it in your trunk
@@Zeiten thanks am in the process of do the oil pan gasket replacement
Sure, good luck
@@Zeiten sorry for bothering you but what is the torque for the oil pan screws
It’s been long long time since i used torque wrench, don’t remember
Just subd!😎
Wow, u did it right on the side of a busy street. Dirty? Police? At least move it into a parking lot first.
So this is all you took away from his video? That he did it on the side of the street? Just wow.
@@robhughes8516 No, he is good and I have learned a lot from him. Always appreciate and enjoy his work and willingness to show. Just doing it on street in CALIFORNIA, especially in LA, is asking for trouble from police. At least he can do it on owner's parking space or driveway or garage. I do appreciate the mobile service he provides as no one like to take cars to shop and wait and wait.
Can I reuse the oil pan bolts on 2008 528i e60 n52k?
Absolutely, most of the time nothing happens to the bolts it is really rare when oil pan bolts break
@@Zeiten Are the bolts aluminum?
Most likely the bolts are aluminum. If the bolts on your particular car are aluminum, then definitely fit new ones. These bolts are angle torqued. Which means they are stretched when fully torqued. They are likely to snap in half if used again. Sometimes they snap just when removing them. Which is why i would not do this job at the side of a public freeway.
You might not be able to finish the job in one day if a bolt snaps.
Also you do not want to be under a car on a busy freeway when some idiot playing with his cell phone drives straight into the back of your parked car.
I guess that is a mistake you will only make once in your life. Lol.
Absolutely not true, just a load of bs, do those bolts break sometimes - yes of course i have personally replaced hundreds of those gaskets and once in a very long while bolts break (angle torqued - wtf is this?😂) that doesn’t mean you should go ahead and replace all of them, not necessary at all but if you are worried and want to make sure everything goes as planned of course buy those bolts
@@Zeiten aluminium bolts are one time use. For the sake of a few bucks I would replace those bolts as specified by BMW in the TIS manual. You do not want to do this job twice.
If the bolts were easily accessible you might take a chance because you know you can replace them later if you need to. But not for this job.
when do I realise my oil pan gasket is bad?
When you see oil under your car
Can you relocate to Philadelphia please lol
I prefer to stay away from cold winters, had enough of it😂
