F31 xDrive N47 oil change
in the past all of my BMWs have had a door in the bottom engine cover which is used to access the oil drain plug. There is no door on my car just two openings in the under panel. It appears the the front opening is to provide access to the front differential and the smaller rear opening is to provide access to the drain plug which has a 17mm head. Could someone confirm that this is the oil drain plug?
Thanks, Darryl |

Thanks to everyone that responded. Oil change done successfully!
By the way, I got the BMW LL-04 oil from my dealer for $8.00/liter, they also gave me a substantial discount on the filter as a BMW CCA member. Darryl |
