322 n62 oil pressure light | |
Hey all, Christopher and Vera sent me. Picked up my 4th LR/RR recently. 05 RR hse with bmw 4.4. I know people hate this engine, but mine seems to run excellent with 160k. Vehicle was well maintained. Only concern is an occasional oil pressure light at idle. Oil pressure seems great though and plenty of oil flinging around valve covers. I know my bmws had issues with collapsing oil filters, so I immediately suspect this. But on my particular RR the oil filter housing is remote (located near radiator) and no matter where I go for a replacement I get given the wrong one. The filter I keep getting given has a plastic core and hollow bottom paper filter, but the one I need has a metal core and threaded bottom. This doesn't look to be an aftermarket oil filtration setup or anything, what gives? I'd really like to get this filter replaced. I'm also stuck dealing with some canbus issues and invalid rode height but that's all for another post. Love these old girls. She really feels like she carrying you gently down the road, in whatever condition. A whole different driving experience. (Protip, don't do a coil conversion to yours, I've had 4lrs, one with AB coil kit, and it destroys the LR/RR experience on highway completely, off road is alright but on road it's a complete molestation).
Well thx for any help, and ty for the service manuals. Great site 👍
