If your BMW 8 Series (G15, 2018-Present) fitted with the N63 (4.4L V8 twin-turbo) engine is showing signs of an oil leak, you’re likely more than a little concerned. Oil is the lifeblood of your engine, lubricating and cooling vital components to ensure efficient operation. An oil leak, while seemingly small, could lead to significant damage if left untreated. Understanding and fixing this symptom should be a top priority to maintain optimal performance.
Common Causes of Oil Leak in the BMW 8 Series
Oil leaks can originate from different areas and could be due to mechanical, electrical, or software-related issues. Deteriorated seals or gaskets, faulty oil filter housing units, or even improper bolt torque from factory could all contribute to this problem. Electrical issues, although less common, can cause overpressure in the oil system, leading to leaks. For vehicles with advanced electronics, a software issue may incorrectly interpret sensor data, resulting in abnormal oil pressure and subsequent leaking.
Potential Solutions to Oil Leak
Addressing an oil leak starts with proper diagnostics to identify the source. This may involve examining physical components or assessing electronic systems. Once identified, remedies such as seal or gasket replacements, correcting oil filter housing unit issues, or adjusting bolt torques could be necessary. In cases related to system overpressure or incorrect sensor data readings, an electrical repair or software update may be the solution.
