And speaking of oil leaks. The other day I caught up with a very good friend I had back in High School and he has an '04 328 w/ M54 engine, same as mine. He bought it certified pre-owned in '07 with only 60K and how has 102K well maintained miles. He cannot get his car to stop leaking oil. He's had two OFHG (one under warranty) and he's had to foot the bill for the recent second one AND he's had to pay to have the oil pan gasket replaced in addition to I think one, if not two, value cover gaskets. Now he has a new mystery leak where when he goes up a steep hill or incline there's a slight fresh burning oil smell. Just wanted to share since we're on the subject. I consider myself fortunate. I'm reminded of STUNT and him pulling his entire 4.6 engine to correct all the assorted leaks.

I think I'll go ahead and order new grommets as a preventive measure.
