New Valve Cover from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ib/1AEV...
This video shows you how to install a new valve cover gasket in your 2008-2013 BMW 328i xDrive. Under the valve cover, you have camshafts and the valvetrain spinning and flinging oil everywhere. A valve cover has to have a gasket to stop some of that oil from leaking out the seam. When you do see oil around your valve cover, you know it’s time to replace the gasket.
Estimated installation time for a professional technician is approximately: 4 hours 54 minutes

Thanks Andy. Going to work on my cousin's x3 soon. I watched your Silverado cam sensor removal a bunch of times . I thought Chevy's were easier than bmw. Without you guys I only could pump gas before. I am in your debt. Thank you

Can you take it off without removing the actuator?
