Grant 4 Report post Posted January 27, 2004 Hello After all of my oil change drama's, I filled the Bimmer with nice new oil, went for a nice drive last night, and come back, and later on what do I see??? A couple of drops of oil right under the sump plug, with another drop forming nicely. I was an idiot and reused the copper crush-washer from the sump plug instead of replacing it. Now I am going to have to put up with a (very) small oil leak until my next oil change. This is a trap for young players (and old ones like me!!). Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant 4 Report post Posted January 28, 2004 oh yeah.... another trap for young players. If you use degreaser on your engine, make sure you hose it off really (I mean really) thoroughly. I did not, and had a smelly smoking manifold while the excess burned off. You can learn a lot from my stuff ups!!!! Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
