Re: Rear Crankshaft Seal Replacement

Use caution not to damage the end of the oil pan seal. I currently am doing a rear seal on an E28 535I and the previous mechanic cut the oil pan seal off when he removed the rear main seal and used RTV to unsuccessfully reseal the pan. Now I will need to support engine to replace the pan gasket next.

Re: L6 or 635CSI

WBAEC8413J3267709, curious as to why the title lists it as a L6A, that is not something you can change?

Re: L6 or 635CSI

I did read about dealers replacing the leather dashes due to warpage. Mine has a leather glove box, drivers knee bolster and console so I am sure it's factory. The car has been repainted so someone may have added the emblems. The title shows L6A. So the correct trunk emblems should be L6?

L6 or 635CSI

I got my title from the seller, It lists it as a L6A, The trunk shows 635CSI as well as when I ran the VIN on the decoders. It does have leather everywhere except the dash. Is this the Highline L6 version?
