Replacing Oil Filter Stand Gasket. What else?!?

Hey guys I’ve got a ‘08 Cooper S Hatch and I will be replacing the Oil Filter Stand Gasketthis weekend alone with some other gaskets because I have a leak. I curious as to what other things you would recommend I replace with new or aftermarket while I’m in there? Would this be the time to consider the “Noise Maker” delete... ect?!?

Thanks in Advance

Talked all about it in this thread when I did mine. ^^

While you are they its east to reach the nosie maker on the front, on the back one you can reach it from the top.

If you're going so far as to replace the filter housing gasket I would just do the whole shebang; oil feed line, return line, etc.

If you feel so inclined you could also do the cooler gaskets while you're in there: Oil Cooler Gaskets

It's been my experience that the noise maker delete doesn't generate anymore noise, so to each their own. It's a cheap mod, not gonna break the bank to feed a hobby.
