    Quick Swap Question

    Finally got my s50 to my house, its about to go on the stand and start getting regasketed and such. I got an m50 oil pan from an e34 and something missing from the bottom of it, could someone be so kind and tell me what is missing:

    If you look at the bottom of the pan...there is three studs that something is suppoused to get bolted to, what is it?

          Get a used one, or better yet, unless you want to go through the hassle of wiring it up, only to have the idiot light you'll never notice until it's too late, just make an aluminum plate to cover it up.

              they actually sell a factory cover plate, thats what I did. I think it was like $10 with the gasket.

                  Yeah went over to the BMW department at the stealership I work at. Its off a euro M50. Luckily they brought some into the states. Should have it in a couple days. Thanks for the heads up!
