Unfortunately i have Xdrive so installing the S55 oil pan is not an option. (Althought i am curious if i could install the S55 oil pump and keep the n55 Xdrive Pan)
I highly recommend you guys do your oil changes on time and if you guys ever have to, upgrading the bearings and the oil pan is an absolute must for long term reliability.
Mind you it seems like im an outlier amongst EWG owners.

Xdrive oil sump is poorly designed due to the front driveshaft and maybe the oil was a little bit low. Shame to hear.
