Review on Dorman Solutions 917 072 Plastic Filter by Darryl Blumenthal

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Spend the extra money and go to the dealer.

Brand new drain plug leaking. Removed the plug, replaced the O-ring and the leak continues. As a result, I went to BMW and asked to replace the cover with the factory cover. It ended up costing me more, plus I had to change the oil again, degrease the entire underside of my car and have the car towed to avoid engine damage. The leak wasn't a drip, it was a squirt, like the area around the drain plug had cracked.

Pros
  • Direct replacement for always the right fit
Cons
  • Low repairability
