F60 Oil Pan material
Oil Pan material
Hey there fellas,
I have a small scrape that penetrated the oil pan for a 2018 Countryman S ALL4. It's got a very slow leak (about 1/8th quart per 24hours). It looks repairable with some JBweld so that's the route I'm going to take. I just need to know what material the pan is made from. Is it aluminum, magnesium, non-ferrous steel? A magnet wouldn't stick so I know it isn't ferrous.
thanks in advance..
