I think a 5 series will be neat to try out.
    You just need to drain oil, remove the reinforcement plate (7 bolts), then you will see sensor on bottom of oil pan. Then unplug sensor and remove 3 bolts on sensor. Done.

Well I am freaking impressed. light on is oil level sensor they are replacing it. also added heated seat on high i weak at best they are replacing the element, groan in front end is r/f wheel bearing its being replaced, the rattle I heard in front of engine I thought maybe waterpump ( i already bought one to put in ) is Vanos and they are changing it for me. grand total $0.00, They said parts wont be in till friday so stay in the 2011 325xi till its done.

    I so am already, I belong to many boards and so far this I must say is the MOST freindly and knowledgeable board I have ever seen. I have yet to see anyone get flamed for asking a seemingly stupid question. to me there is no such thing as a stupid question so I truly am impressed. Cheers to all.

    Nice work. Glad to find a dealer that was willing to take care of all of that for you. CPO warranty FTW.

    Assuming the dealer checked the rear subframe while it was in their possession? Might not be a bad idea to ask if they did the inspection.

    Excellent. Glad to hear you're being taken care of. That's great.

    As for the level of friendliness and knowledge on this site, we were recognized in Roundel magazine as a forum that has cleaned up the Internet. See article here. We take that reputation very seriously. That's why, even when we do have a member who doesn't want to play by the rules of the forum, we do our best to give that member remedial training.

    If remedial training doesn't work, and the member just can't play nicely, the person is invited to go elsewhere. To this point, we've never had to ban someone. However, we have seen a few members self select and decide this place is not for them. Apparently we are just too friendly and nice or something.

    Date expired October 2010....though some dealers may offer a good faith repair should you need one. Mainly 2001-2002 affected.....and they were tracked or from the North East.
