The Oil Pan Thread

[anto125]

i'm in the club since last week

obviously m42 e30
after 1 year of driving it gotta do it
no really destroyed it, after a hit there is an invisible crack (but really visible oil leak) also caused by a few pan's bolts failure

not a noob in slammed driving, but this pan is a real PITA



so i bought this shortened oil pan for 4 cylinders e30s
2,3 cm higher and same oil capacity

My Civic's oil pan decided to call it quits on prom night. Road crowns and an insane driveway finally caught up to me.







Massachusetts roads will get ya.

That's why I love my truck. I have a frame connector that runs under my oil pan, so that takes the beating.

So true. My transcrossmember takes all the beating for the oilpan
