Great video! I will add from experience that if your car is RHD, you will need to remove the remaining cowl at the bottom of the windscreen in order to remove and replace the valve cover. This is because the wiper motor on RHD cars is blocking the valve cover from coming off/going back on and it's a lot easier to remove and replace the cowl as opposed to the wiper motor. Also, it's not necessary to remove the coolant hoses from the intercooler. All you need to do here is disconnect the MAP sensor and charge pipes, pop the intercooler out of the grommets, move it out of the way and prop it up with a piece of wood.

Thank you bmw for making the valve cover from plastic and saving $100. Also it allows us the privilege to buy it for $500 every 60k miles 😂😂😂
