OIL Starvation E90 335i N55

Hey guys, I want to prevent oil starvation while drifting or track-use. s there any solution for E-Series to solve this problem ? I found aftermarket parts for F-Series only. My car is 2011 BMW E90 335i N55.

Thanks for your input and help

I believe the one posted above doesn’t work on PWG N55 like ours.

Unfortunately, I don’t think there’s anything you can do. Nothing has been reported as a guaranteed, or even good, safeguard against it. I’d say just replace your rod bearings so at least you have a fresh start.

You can get the s55 oil pump to work if you're RWD and willing to do some mods. These guys made it work on their e-series:

Replace the two "XX" with "oo"
