How to remove and reinstall the oil filter housing in N54,N55 six cylinder engine on BMW 335i?

Drain engine coolant and remove the electric cooling fan. Loosen the oil filter cover to allow oil in the filter housing to flow into the pan. Remove the intake manifold, as this is necessary to access a difficult-to-reach oil filter housing fastener located on the right side of the oil filter housing under the intake manifold. It may be possible to access this bolt without removing the intake manifold using suitable tools. Working at the oil filter housing involves removing fastener E and pulling lines from the thermostat housing, followed by removing the thermostat housing fasteners and the thermostat housing itself. Next, remove the coolant line from the housing and the oil pressure sensor. Then, remove bolts C and F to take off the oil filter housing from the engine. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring to clean mating surfaces and replace O-rings and seals while avoiding over-tightening fasteners to prevent damage to seals. Refill coolant and check and top off oil as needed.

BMW 335i Oil Filter Housing

The BMW 335i Oil Filter Housing is designed to allow the pressurized engine oil to pass through the filter to scrub out the debris before the clean engine oil is transferred back into the block. Built as a sturdy assembly that bolts directly to the engine, the housing ensures a sealed pathway so no oil can bypass the filter element. This ensures that every drop is screened for harmful contaminants. Over the production run of the 335i, the basic concept has been the same, using a rigid shell that securely seats the filter in place and a network of internal passages that allow the oil in and out under the pressure of the oil pump. This durable design takes the full operating pressure that the turbocharged inline six generates and prevents leaks that could cause bearings to starve for lubrication. While minor casting tweaks have been made from early to later model years, each Oil Filter Housing works the same way, connecting the filter and engine into one compact unit. BMW 335i owners find the Oil Filter Housing remains reliable if the gasket is serviced. The 335i revisions continued to resemble Oil Filter Housing sizing that one BMW part would simplify Oil Filter Housing replacement.
