Oil filter housing gasket or oil pan? Do the OFHG soon before belt/tensioner are added to the list and/or it shreds into the crank pulley.

Oil Filter Housing Gasket.

Yes. Just have a good breaker bar handy to release the tensioner. Tough to work around the front inlet pipe and coolant hose but it's doable.

FWIW My tire looked exactly like that too when I had a blown strut, but then I replaced my suspension and got an alignment and hasn't happened again

Check retailmenot or use the Honey extension for Chrome. I feel like I got some discount before checkout.

Watch out for the upper coolant hose nipple that runs over to the coolant expansion tank. I was removing the cooling fan to get to the belt and the nipple just snapped and sprayed me with coolant. I had to replace the upper coolant hose; I didn't mind because it was fatigued and cracked on the inside anyway. Thank God Bavauto had it in stock.

Good point. Did that when I replaced the brittle plastic coolant overflow line that goes above the radiator to the overflow tank.

Went to GC Gourmet yesterday in Lawrence. Right across from MCDonalds. Food was great, they don't speak english, the lunch special was $6.50 and I could barely finish it. Way more healthy than what $6.50 from across the street gets you and a lot more food. I highly recommend people check it out: http://www.yelp.com/biz/grandes-chimis-lawrence

Might even go back today it was so good.



Just ordered 4 Blizzak WS80s for the E90. Going to run these all year round. I have winters on the E91 as well. Can't wait for the 1st big storm to see how the awd w/ snows is.


I have two snow blowers for sale if anyone is interested:

Once they sell I'm looking at this puppy: http://www.troybilt.com/equipment/tr...er-vortex-3090
