Something Every X5M owner should check every 80-100k miles.

Did anyone here use Elring branded pan gasket? It’s only 15$ on fcp compared to OEM gasket that costs $45.
Or should I just stick with OEM?

Man, I didn’t realize the price had gone up so much! In April of 2023 I bought the BMW gasket for $17 from FCP Euro 😳

Honestly I’d think you’d be fine with the Elring, that’s what I’d get if I do mine again

So I did the job at 100k, chain definitely had slack, not a hard job but time consuming. Used all OEM Parts. Did the front and rear diff oil at the same time.
