I have a 2004 530i. I already know that I have a slow engine oil leak from the oil pan gasket and I'm starting to think I might be leaking PS fluid as well.
If I didn't have the splashguard on it would be a hell of a lot easier to tell how much my car was leaking when I park it in the garage.
How does everyone feel about the splashguard? Do you keep it on?

I keep mine on, but if you suspect you have a leak and you want to keep an eye on how much fluid you're losing on a daily basis, remove it for a few days, then put it back in once you have your answer or fix your problem. It takes 5 minutes or less to remove.

Defitnatly put it back on after u find your leaks. It also helps protect under neath the car from rocks and road debris. I just ran over a truck tire tread. and if it wasnt for that cover
, It would of jacked up the ARS hydraulic lines or my ac tensioner and belt..
So the guys are right about keeping it on..
