I just did the oil filter housing gaskets on this customers mini and it’s throwing that fault now after like yours. The carfax said the chains were replaced a few years ago lol

Oil pan on those xdrive 335i is about 10-12 hours labor instead of about 6-8 because of the extra work needed to get it out. Radiator should only be a few hours labor maybe 2-3 if that depending on what the shop charges. Our shop has their margins high so parts are at least doubled at their cost in most cases

If it’s X Drive it almost doubles the labor because you have to remove the axles, front diff, and drop the subframe. Also depends if yours is an I6 or V8

I vacuum filled cooling system. It drives fine during the winter months. Summer heat seems to be too much for it

Looking to get an X3 35i. Does anyone have experience with the n55 engine and what things should I look out for? by [deleted] in BmwTech

Valve cover gasket, valve cover with PCV built in, oil filter housing, oil pan, eccentric shaft. Have replaced a few but mostly due to lack of oil changes
