Well Thanks to a recent ice storm and snowplows destroying the roads, my oil pan is now cracked. On my way to home from my girlfriends house last night I was doing maybe 40-50 MPH felt a terrible bump and just knew something was wrong so I pulled into a parking lot right down the road to only see oil dripping down and knew what was wrong. Now the question is... What can I do to temporally fix this until I can change oil pans? Also if anybody has a oil pan for an E engine let me know.

Drain the oil, clean the spot where it is cracked really good, ruff up/sand the spot. Then put some JB Weld on it. You can use an E or an I pan. Just the ones that was in e28's are steal and i don't think they work in the e30.?.?.?
EDIT: after seeing the pictures. That's an easy fix with JB weld.Last edited by JasonC; 12-20-2008, 12:40 PM.

Get all the oil out so that you can get a nice clean surface to work with. Like everyone said.... JB weld that shit... it worksOriginally posted by ebelementsAlso, for those who don't know, negative camber is the greatest thing since sliced bread(panera). Even tire wear is for city busses and the elderly.
