The fuel cassette resides under the back seat, passenger side, clean it off before you open it. You'll need to be down to at least 1/2 a tank or less, before opening this. Keep a fire extinguisher handy. The electrical connector unlocks from the bottom, so you'll need a small hook or screw driver to lift up it's locking tab.

The old vacuum pump seal. This thing made it seem my oil pan was leaking more than I thought.

Looks good, tip = a wet towel around the exhaust will keep you from getting burned as the exhaust heats up fast with the engine running for the fluid fill.

Looks good, use a wet towel over the exhaust pipe to keep from getting burned by the exhaust while filling it with trans fluid.

I found it easier to remove the trans mount to service the metatronic sleeve, if you do this support the trans and motor at their joining flange, this gets the jack out of the way of any trans work.

The 8mm allen i cut down for the trans fill plug. The cut off section is what i use with an 8mm Gearwrench to remove the diff fill plug.

I bought this aluminum valve body seal on the advice of a buddy who races his ZF equipped BMW regularly. The plastic onon the right will deform under high loads, leading to slippage and heat.

The best way to remove this tube is to release it from the throttle body, then while pushing it back, release the squeeze couple by pressing on one side at a time.

This is the vent tube that attaches to the top of the throttle body and back of the left valve cover, removing it will give you some much needed space when changing the plugs. Mine was cut so i was replacing it.

The best way to remove this squeeze retainer because of its location is to press one side at a time while pressing the hose back towards the firewall.

Removing this vent hose gives you more room to service the left bank plugs, mine was cut so I replaced it.

REMEMBER THIS IS AN ALUMINUM BLOCK SO EASY ON THE ANTI SEIZE! TOO MUCH CAN LET YOU OVER TIGHTEN AND RIP THE THREADS OUT.

You will be removing all of the tensioners and idlers, so have a diagram of the set up and belt routing handy.

It's pretty straight forward. You will need a set of belt servicing tools to release the tensioners. Mine from Harbor freight worked just fine.

This is the set up I'm using for the plugs this time. A 13mm Gear Wrench coupled using a Gear Wrench 3/8 wrench drive. It works well and the short size not gives you a better feel for what the socket and plug are doing, it limits your torque in tightening.

And ran it in to the boost bypass valve vacuum port, and now I can spray the can empty from the drivers seat.
