Replaced oil/air separator and PCV valve preventatively based on common oil sludging issues in these BMWs. Replaced all the associated hoses as well. Used the "cold weather" insulated versions and OEM parts (except for one hose). Also replaced the dipstick tube O ring and did a little sludge cleanup. Tested DISA valve and found it to be in good working order. Odo 97425. Accidentally reset tripometer with est 318 miles on tank so far.
