Oil filter housing gaskets

WAMz4 · 07-17-2018, 06:45 PM

Has anyone changed the Oil filter housing gaskets? Nothing found in forum search.
You tube has a few videos for other BMW models, but nothing specific for the Z4.
I have a leak and need to replace the housing gaskets. It looks straight forward as the housing is right on top and up front.
Has anyone seen or have a DIY for this?

This video should so the trick. It's on an X3 but it's the N52 with the oil cooler so except for some of the plastic trim covers the job is the same.

Thanks, That looks pretty straight forward. I was afraid the alternator would have to be removed.
