Originally posted by andybob View PostFew things come to mind, crankcase vent, valve cover gasket, oil sending unit, head gasket (worst case scenario).
I've never looked under he hood of a Bimmer, so I'm not sure of the wichedry going on under there. Those would be my first suspects though.
I been thinking about it for last 2 hours and I think its my ccv. About a month ago I replaced: valve cover gasket, vanos oil line, oil filter housing gasket, dipstick O ring. At that time I also checked all of the sensors on the block.
At this point my best guess is CCV or head gasket (I am fucked if it is my head gasket).
I am going to fix it regurdless of what it is, even if I deside to sell my car.
Just really dont feel like taking the head off, but if thats what it takes then be so...

I go to school for AutoBody (with interests in General AutoTech) and I consider myself a car enthusiast. Like I said though, those are a generic list of things that could go wrong, but by the sounds of it I think you have it narrowed down. Good Luck. It would be a bitch if its a head gasket though.
I really like people like you (I would like to think same about myself). You have your fair share of automotive knowlege but dont run around and srcream hey look at me I know it all.
I wish there would be more people like you on this planet!!!

"Oh, so you know about cars, well, sometimes my car will do this and make this noise, but it doesn't do it all the time, sometimes it wont do it for a while, but then it will do it a lot..." "You think you know what it is???"
Me: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
