2008 x5 4.8 leaking oil when cold.

[byebyev8]

My x5 leaks a huge amount of oil once it's first started in the cold then stops leaking completely after about 2 minutes . It has 130k on it so I expect it have some leaks but this is the weirdest thing I've ever seen. Has anyone else experienced this issue

Bad CCV?

Any idea from where?

My only experience with a significant oil loss was the cooler thermostat gasket. Theoretically I could see the gasket expanding when it warmed up and sealing better....

Mine started leaking at ~137k if I recall, so about the same time as you.

Fixed. It was the oil filter housing o-ring
