This shows how much I drive my E30 M3. 2 years and it is ready for it's first oil change.
S52 swap with S50 head (oil cap is in the back).
So first thing is first, I went to Napa and got an S52 oil filter (s50 and s52 are supposed to be the same) and 6 quarts of oil.
When replacing the oil filter, the one in there is BMW PN - 11427833242. It is shorter by 1/4" than the standard S52 oil filter which BMW PN is - 11427833769 and does not fit.
SO WTF?
Do I have a different oil filter housing? Anyone ever ran into this? When I search for BMW PN 11427833242 on Realoem.com it comes back invalid.
I dont know what to think. Can anyone help?
