Hello,

Could you add the details on how to change the oil filter housing gasket on a 2006 R56 base. I've ordered the gasket and hoping to do it myself.

We don't currently have that tech article. If we get a chance to perform the procedure, we will be sure to document it.


I would suggest you grab a repair manual, you should own one. It will have the procedure, special tools and torque specs.

Give our parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799.
