I’m replacing my oil pan on my 18 2.7 with the Dorman aluminum pan that came out a few months ago.

For the PCV issue, Dorman makes an upgraded replacement intake manifold where the PCV valve is captured so there is no way it is going to fall out anymore.
Dorman makes steel versions of these aluminum mounts
3rd is Dorman aluminum. Cylinder head around 128kish. Valve cover gasket and most recent was dreaded tick on the passenger side. Fixed that and good as new.
Have had a pair or doorman's for the last 20k and there still kicking.
I bought a Dorman from Rockauto, price was like 25% of a new OEM.
Hopefully lasts me 2 years or more. Now Im saving for an OEM.
City and highway truck, no off-roader.
I only had partially good luck with control arms for my old Civic (Dorman arms that fit but had all the Dorman stuff concealed by dirt, and I was after Honda arms).
You Should be using BMW only brand , as a Dorman brand will leave you stranded every couple years .
Sometimes the Dorman OE solutions stuff is better than oem. Everything is a dice roll these days. I’m replacing a steering rack on my own car today that didn’t even make it 1800 miles before puking its guts out.
I purchased a new expansion tank for my BMW e46. Initially, I opted for a Dorman expansion tank from AutoZone, but I wasn’t entirely convinced by my choice. Unfortunately, I observed that the AutoZone tank was leaking from the top, which left me puzzled. I wondered if this issue was due to it being an aftermarket part. This year alone, I’ve had to replace the tank five times, which has been quite frustrating.
