Oil Pan Gasket, Victor Reinz - E34 535i/M5, E32 735i

The Victor Reinz Oil Pan Gasket is a direct replacement, so it's an exact fit with ultimate sealing properties. This one is made specifically for the later models with the M30 "big six" engine, including the E34 535i, E34 M5, the E32 735i, and the E32 735iL models. 

Your original oil pan gasket can crack and come apart from age and heat allowing the engine oil to seep through and leak. Tightening the oil pan bolts to decrease the leaking will only cause more harm to the gasket and can potentially damage the small, lightly-torqued bolts. We suggest replacing the oil pan gasket to prevent an increasing mess and to stop any potential of running the engine with low oil levels.
