After 50,000km of nary a single drop of oil used, and having an engine that could double as a Driza-Bone, I sadly found the garage full of smoke this afternoon. Couple of drops of oil on the top of the undertray directly below the front turbo, and a very wet looking line as per the pictures. Kinda hard to picture with a torch in one hand and a camera in the other, but I suspect this is the oil feed line (#3) in this picture? http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E90N/Europe/335d-M57N2/R-N/feb2011/browse/engine/oil_supply_for_turbocharger/ It's very much obscured behind the turbo heat shields etc etc so will need to investigate in the morning when the block is cold, but does this sound right M57 gurus? cc: @HELLBM

HK audio, and tiny nav... Who on earth specced this?!

How much for the Performance wheel Ray? Will be up in a couple of weeks.

Was a nice summer car for Queenstown but!

Sub 300km until the 180,000k mark.

Buy this so I can fit the E30 into the garage beside the Forester.

Silver M3 best M3. Looks bloody awesome, good luck with the sale!

+1 on stock mapping. I've gone back from 790Nm to stock on a 335d and you honestly don't miss it in the real world. Throttle controller is nice to have when you're in the twisties but pointless day to day.

That’s a weapon Ray!! Is that a 2 series front end swap I spy?

@HELLBM done any M57 8HP swaps yet?

The Flossman GT2 kit has never gelled with me. By all accounts a seriously quality bit of kit, as you'd expect for some 12K Euro, but it just doesn't work on a road car. Interesting choice to respray a Frozen Edition car, could we infer that a Singapore paint scratchier ruined the initial paint job and this is the end result?

Absolutely transformative. Can't believe how much better it makes the car look.

Absolute beauty! Definitely one of (if not) the best in the country for sure.
