Throwing up pics of parts with a little oil on them helps no one. A little more background would help.....

Have you looked at the head to see if the oil is saturating down the block in a specific spot?

+1, you need to know where the oil is coming from.

The fact that it is not bad, doesn't mean you should let it be.

Check the common oil leak points (head, filter housing etc...)

Basically mine looked exactly the same. It's looks a lot worse than it actually is.

Mine was the oil filter housing.

Changed it over, cleaned it up and hasn't leaked a drop since.

F80_M3llow · 12-03-2013, 05:51 PM

Def oil filter housing.

Spoolin Montego · 12-07-2013, 06:22 PM

Makes me feel a lot better. I thought mine looked really bad too, but not as much as yours. Just cleaned it up and shall see where it's coming from.

RimasRS · 12-08-2013, 05:57 AM

My vote for filter housing...

jzmundy · 12-09-2013, 08:59 AM

I'll chime in and agree with everyone else. My 335 looked exactly like that - filter housing!

Hopefully it's just it.
Otherwise car is nice....as I was pissed off that a 70k Bimmer that has been taken care of would leak oil to this point.

Oil filter housing is the most well known
