Couldn't find any good videos online covering this so i shelled out over $2.5k to get this fixed at the dealer a few days ago. Mine failed at 47k miles.
Moral of the story is be patient until Kern drops a vid 😂
this probably took longer to post than it should have, but i hate replacing parts that aren't broken just to make videos.
@@kern417 it's always appreciated when you do though ✊🏽
It’s a 9 hour job in the book but yea I just replaced mine and it started leaking 2 months later time to get a aluminum one
What made you replace the whole unit instead of just the gaskets ?
They tend to fail and crack leak coolant mines went at 76k
if it's leaking, you don't know if it's a leaking gasket or a cracked housing until you remove it. i'm not going to wait until i have the part removed to order replacements.
@@kern417 thanks for the reply I was genuinely curious
@@kern417 I got a metal housing would you still recommend replacing the whole unit ?
@@CarlosPlayhouseif you only have a metal oil filter cap that you twist off to change the filter, the actual housing that the cap threads onto is still plastic and is still likely to leak. Metal housings can be found online for $300ish and if you have one of those then you should only need to replace gaskets, though this is a less likely scenario.
Yeah this is going to be a no from me dawg. I’ll be paying someone to do this.
Yeah that's a lot of work.
Weak
Facts I took one look at all them plugs and hoses and knew right away I’d fuck something up along the way
Surprisingly it’s not a difficult task, I only needed to replace my coolant flange the part right next to the auxiliary water pump and oil filter housing, it’s just very time consuming I ended up breaking 3 coolant hoses because they were stuck on but they probably needed to be replaced anyway 😅
Soft asssss
I do the oil changes on my 2022 M240ix. On the initial change, the oil filter cover (cap) was so tightly torqued down by the BMW manufacturing plant at San Luis Potosi, Mexico that I was concerned they had cross threaded it with the housing.
It wasn't as difficult as when you removed the cap on your replacement housing, but too much torque for a hard plastic housing that's only going to get more brittle with time and high heat exposure.
When I reinstalled the filter cover and torqued it to specs, it was clearly not as tight as the factory had installed it, I'd guess they had it 2x torque spec.
Replace the plastic OE with the aluminum one. There is an Aluminum Oil Filter Housing for B58 on the market
Where? Who makes it? In the alternative, would the S58 OE aluminum filter housing swap over?
But isn’t it the o rings that fail?? Or are the housings cracking?
@@johncooke7191 the housing cracking
@@LegalEagle117 Chinese make it. I don't know S58 OFH can fit the B58 or not
@@johncooke7191 I tend to think both is possible, but I consider THESE TALL FILTER HOUSING o-rings on EVERY vehicle (that has this design) to be a wear/replacement part.
If I do this it’ll be 3 day minimum job
me waiting with my oil filter housing in the box for kern to drop a diy on it lmao
Thanks again. I did this already. This is going to help so many people in the future
BMW never learns, another leaking ofhg 😂 and you have to remove the “intake manifold” like the n5x cars too
Do you have to prime the engine after this job? Like the n55 stories?
Do I need to put oil in the housing when I install the new filter?
Any chance for this job being easier if accessed from the bottom?
The plastic filter housings broke on both of me 3.6 Chryslers at the same time a couple months ago.
Oily mess all over my driveway.
Metal replacements shouldn't have any more issues. This plastic crap needs to stop.
amen all my homies hate plastic
The video I’ve been waiting for
Great job.If I do this on my B48I think I'm going to change the heat control module And the left motor mount.Do you think that excessive? There is so much work to get to that point.
bmw quote 11hrs, does that make sense ?
What a nightmare!
One month too late😭 I could not find any videos on this. Had to pay 3k with other associated repairs
Thanks for doing this DIY, now i definitely know I'll never be doing this myself. Geebus, what a nightmare.😮
This is really starting to get the weak point of b58, it is not if but when it happens
Does this guide apply to the B58TU as well?
I had to do this on my car as well… M240i owner here. Gaskets can’t hold a crack
I have taken everything off I can not take off the bottom 3 bolts off any tips and do I need a swivel or remove the wheel liner to get them
@@RandyDiaz-u3c i found it was easiest from the engine bay. Deep etorx socket with a 1/4" extension and some patience is all it takes. It's a tight fit in a tight space. Also make sure you're coming on from the right angle.
Was there a gap after putting the oil cooler on? Between the cooler and housing?
Hey Kevin do we have to prime the OFH with oil?
I had my ofh leak coolant everywhere and also had my main reserve tank crack so it also spilled coolant everywhere. Now every time I get done with a drive I always smell coolant from the front of the car and I have ptsd from it lol. No leaks tho
If you smell coolant after driving thats not good
The B48 version of this part is known to crack. Doesn’t seem to be an issue on the b58 version. Any idea why? Edit: shouldn’t the engine be primed before starting it up fully again?
It’s more common on B58s closer to 100K+ miles
some b58 owners say it has cracked but mine didn't. there's nothing really to prime for the oil filter housing.
At what mileage should we consider changing the oil cooler itself?👀
40k approximately.
Any leads on an aluminum aftermarket housing? Or, would the S58's stock aluminum housing swap over?
Pinned comment
@@kern417 Apologies, thank you!
No problemo
About to do this on my car but upgraded to the aluminum housing from Aliexpress, should I use the oil cooler on it, or just throw on the oem cooler as that part isnt really the failure point of the housing?
i would use as many oem parts as possible. for sure oem gaskets, cooler, and filter.
Even the cooler thats been on the car for the last 75k miles? If it looks good the internals will still work well?@@kern417
Can you make a video of a complete mod list of your 340i? 😊
yes will make one after this stage of the build is complete
I did it it was a bit of a pain in the ass that lower bolt between the coolers lol people need this video well detailed
did you use a 3/8 deep socket? and how did you go about remove that one i can’t seem to find the correct extensions to grab it on
What did you use. And what angle
Did this for my buddy what a pita. Replaced it with aluminum.
How did you get the bottom 3 bolts off with the trans cooler blocking you from the second bolt
I am seeing a "while you are in there" fiasco when I do this. I have 78K on my 2017 M240i. Crossing my fingers for longevity of my housing.
I kern I’m looking into building my engine, what exactly needs to be done? Can I get away with pistons and rods looking under 900bhp
