Tri,

What's up man! Apologies for the late reply, I messed the thread update. Have not touched the pans, no leaks, knock on wood. *knocks fist on head*

edit: I take that back, I do have a leak. You might as well not call it that as it is VERY, VERY slight, coming from the rear main. When/if trans time comes, I'll tackle that. Not too concerned, as it's not even spotting the driveway, but I noticed it while under the truck. Haven't heard much about the pan seals leaking though. Are they high fail or known to go at x mileage?

edit2: hmm... maybe it's the pan leaking at a point near the rear of the motor, and not rear main? Damn.... time to go under the truck for another look.

At Bimmerfest this past weekend I was chatting with the VAC Motorsports crew, and one of the guys was stressing the importance of keeping the front driveshaft lubed (splines where it comes out of the transfer case.) So, that's what I'll be up to here soon. Also replacing both ping sensors, and the PCV valve (Dinan kit uses one from a 318ti, weird) Might inspect rear subframe bushings as well. No driveline thunks to speak of, but, I've never checked them out, and have been meaning to. Would appreciate pictures of pan gaskets R/R if you go that route sir!

Since last update, replaced the Brembo friction rings in the front, pads all around, and flushed brake fluid. Oil change every 5k.
