Original BMW Engine Oil Pan for BMW M3 E90, E92, and E93 (2008–2013)

Bolted beneath the S65 V8, this Original BMW engine oil pan holds the oil supply the engine draws on for lubrication in the 2008–2013 BMW M3, across the E90 sedan, E92 coupe, and E93 convertible. Storage is only half of its job. The pan also acts as a heat sink, giving hot oil a large surface to shed heat into before it circulates through the engine again. Because it hangs at the lowest point of the engine, the pan is exposed to objects in the road, and a pan that is cracked or warped needs to be replaced before the damage turns into a catastrophic engine failure. This replacement is made in Germany and weighs 9.2 kg (20.2 lb) on its own.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

BMW shows the oil pan at position 1 in the M3 oil filter and lubrication diagram, the group that covers the engine's oil supply. Production of part number 11-13-7-839-227 began in June 2007, and BMW shows no earlier or later number against it, so there is no build-date split to sort out. One pan covers sedan, coupe, and convertible owners alike. BMW applies it only to the M3 with the S65 engine, which means it is not a match for the standard 3 Series built on the same E90, E92, and E93 chassis codes. The pan is sold as a single piece.

Common Questions

What are the usual signs of a failing M3 oil pan?
Cracking and oil leaks are the two failure signs to watch for. Since the pan is the lowest part of the engine, impact from road debris is a frequent cause of that damage.

Do facelifted M3 models need a different pan?
No. BMW uses this same pan on both the early and facelifted E90, E92, and E93 M3.

PMB Performance can help you pair this pan with the right gasket for your S65 M3.
