I'm going to drain down a little Oil.

I could not get a good reading today, no clear line on the dip stick. I still think I may have overfilled in a recent Oil Change.

Took it on the motorway, performed well no leaks once hot, still loving the V8

Slight drip when I cold started from the O Ring ...

Thanks for coming back, could be due to the cold mornings we've been having and it either doesn't get driven weekdays maybe once for short distances, at the weekend it stretches its legs.

I thought the Oil breather issue was more for Diesels,

Thanks all,

Hi all, I have a leak coming out of the rubber O ring on the oil filter housing.

2001 4.4 Sport

On cold start up I get about 1 shot glass of oil leaking out of O-Ring seal.

Once the engine heats up this stops, it does not leak whilst driving/ reving

It has been very cold recently below 0 most ...

Someone took out my mirror so i'm looking to replace this part

Any idea what TITAN and SCHWARZ is below on realoem?

03 Supporting ring right TITAN 1 51168254906 $46.70

If you get this on a new rear wiper try turning the blade upside down, worked for me.

Nice and smooth now,

Have you used Munich legends? I had a bit of work done their £700 inc VAT last year.

They are in the middle of now where but will pick you up from the local station if you give them a warning.

They know the engines well as they only deal with BMW's not sure about the rest of the X5 issues ...
