Oil Pan for 335i is made of metal
As some of you know, the oil pan for the 328i is now made of a composite plastic. I just did an oil change for my 335i and it is metal with a traditional 17mm drain plug bolt.
There must be a reason why the 2 cars are different. Anyone know? |

Perhaps because the N55 is a carryover engine whereas the N20 is a new design that can incorporate more recent design advances?
