 Topic: Engine oil leakPosted: 29-November-2008 at 11:42 |

Hi evryone I have a 1996 320i with a M50tu engine. I had it over the pit last night & i looked up just under the manifold & there was oil dripping down onto the exhaust pipe . I think myself its the head gasket just leaking from the side of the block , cars running fine - no coolant leaking - no oil & coolant mixing - no condensation from exhaust . just wondering did anyone here experience anything like this . |

check yer rocker cover gasket , easy way is to check yer plugs are not filled with oil. it might be running down . common on these
