Had my 2014 535 in for front control arm replacement (99k miles) and technician said it has an oil pan gasket leak. I haven't been adding oil or seeing any leakage on the ground. Cost quoted was $1900. Asked the tech to send me a pic of the leak. He did, and from what I saw it looks more like normal seepage for an engine with 99k miles on it. I'm not worried about it.
Pros: normal seepage
Cons: oil pan gasket leak

Those BMW oil pan gaskets don't usually leak much oil at all. They seep pretty small amounts and make a mess on the pan and bellhousing, but I've never seen one leak appreciable quantities of oil.
Pros: small amounts of leak
Cons: make a mess
Vehicle:
BMW
the oil pan gasket I bought from BMW - that's not something I would take a risk with as it's a big job and the price different is small...
Pros: reliable, good quality
