I understand that BMW has used different oil seals behind the HES. I'm aware of the garden variety oil seal that has a spring to tension the sealing lip; I've also seen a different design that apparently has no spring but a number of concentric ridges and seems to be made of a plastic-type material. My question is: does it really matter which seal one uses? This seal is a common size and can be ordered in many parts stores. TIA for your thoughts.
