z4hp22 question

I need to change the fluid/filter/gasket in my car and just noticed (upon reading the bentley manual) that when I take the lower pan off the filter will be attached by 3 torx screws.

Anybody know the size so I can make sure I have the right size bit before I pull it off?

Get a torx set both internal and external. You'll need the other sizes for other tasks later.

The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

^^ and if you ever get a newer bmw, like an e34 or something, 90% of the fasteners are torx...
