    Torque specs for those bolts are 22nm. And you may use joint extension instead of removing manifold.

    Looks like pretty easy job for someone like you to do it. You could offer to replace it at a discount. You probably can do 3 cars in a day easy. It is a common issue and it is a big hassle to have to leave the car at the dealer for a quick job like this.

    You DO NOT have to remove the intake manifold or even move it out of the way all you need is a swivel head to access the bolt. Also if you remove the other coolant hose on the right hand side it will allow you to clean the housing mating surfaces away from the car. This makes it easier instead of trying to do it all while tugging on the hose thats still connected to the housing.

    • @simplelangperorock
      @simplelangperorock 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      1/4 swivel socket works fine. Magnetic would be the best. Or if you have skinny fingers like I do, it will be doable. Good comment.

    You can't use magnet on aluminum bolts. Because they deform under torque, you must replace them or risk breaking after reuse.
    Intake doesn't need removal if you use E socket with built in swivel.
    Replace the plastic coolant barb with inexpensive aftermarket aluminum. FCP Euro sells one with coolant hose already attached. Plastic barb will crack with age anyways, and the Oring inside it will be worn and torn during removal.
    Do NOT use OEM aka Elring gaskets, they are the ones leaking at 60k miles. Use other brands that are not junk brands for longer lasting results.

    People if your going to do this job on your own don’t remove the or “loosen up” the intake , that’s just asking for another issue..
    Instead order a 1/4” swivel type E10 socket.. as well as a E10 ratchet wrench 🔧 Amazon specials for this job add it to your BMW. “ 🤦🏼Specialty tools bag “. Of course could t just use normal style bolts everywhere , I mean Christ BMW you used 11mm bolts on the intake yet you decide to use Torx style E10 for random bolts here and there. Just another To many “engineers” on 1 car all in different rooms design FAIL !!
