Correct. Almost all late BMW thrust bushes are oil filled. Replacing them can be a messy job but I find that as long as you know and are prepared, then I push the rubber inner out of the arm first, then press the outer bush housing. I fitted the replacement polyurethane bushes from PhoenixMotorsport which are both firmer and much easier to fit, and should prove longer lasting too so no more oily mess for me.
