I cant see where that back bracket on the power steering pump goes i took the bolt out can’t figure it’s location . Is it right side of the gasket bracket or under in that p or u shaped groove under the gasket
Depending on how skilled you are you can count a total of 10 hours in general. Have everything ready at hand because if not you will have to leave the car unfinished to order missing parts first. Guessing that I am 10 months late now you probably already know that and I am leaving this comment for others to see :)
Hey brother i just so happen to be looking for an easier way to complete this job and i read your message. The reason he didnt loosen or drop the frame is because he loosened the engine mounts and raised the engine instead. Either way its huge fuckin headache.lol
@@vallenatos26 bro it's really not even hard. It may look like it at first but once you get your hands dirty with it you'll see how easy it is. Put car on jack stands, take motor mount bolts off, use a piece of wood on jack and jack up oil pan, remove motor mount and bracket. Easy man
Every vehicle needs service and every vehicle has its own set of issues. if this is a problem for you then consider a vehicle you don't have to own. Like a bus :)

When the bracket goes back what length is the 4 bolts to the back of the bracket ,

Question: you didn't remove the subframe. Every other video I've seems about this lowers the subframe. Please explain your procedure.

@@lanierladen4168 I now have to do this after pulling driver head, timing guide was messed up so now front cover has to come off.
Why the Fuck would BMW have a bracket seal there? My 550 will be leaking forever. To much work

@@radianm6 I think you have convinced me. Thanks !!! I just did the valve covers might as well do that seal
My anxiety just kicked in , no $10 piece of rubber should be that much work to get to
Great video! Your title should be "?Reason 236 why you should never own a BMW"
