Use case:

I found it rather annoying and hard to not make a spill while adding oil to my Z4 with the N54TU engine. There's not enough room to maneuver an oil container without making a small spill.

This should help resolve this issue. I added inserts and a rim to fit in the oil fill. This should keep the funnel stable while adding oil during oil changes. I also added a rim on top of the funnel to effectively reduce spill-backs.

Funnel measurements:

Funnel entry diameter: 123mm OD / 110mm ID
Funnel exit diameter: 38mm
Insert to insert distance: 51mm

Print information:

Printed through a 0.04mm nozzle on an Elegoo Neptune 4 using PLA+. Your results may vary, but I highly recommend you ensure your printer is calibrated for best results. 

Material Recommendation: Print it with PETG for elevated chemical resistance.
Total Print Time: 4hrs @ 350mm/s with a 17mm^3 of flow.

Print setting recommendations:

  • Print upside down
  • Layer Height: 0.25
  • First/Initial layer: 0.22
  • Walls: 2 walls, alternating (to save print time and filament)
  • Top/Bottom: 3 each, Monotonic
  • Infill: 15%, Gyroid
  • Solid Infill: Monotonic
  • Support: Tree/Organic
  • Untick “On build plate only” or equivalent option in your Slicer
