    There will still be some spillage though, so be prepared.
    Will do thanks for the heads up!

      Specifically, I want to know if it's necessary to drain the oil. Trying to avoid that if at all possible.
      Highly recommend the Bavarian Autosport Viton OFHG. I do believe ECS carries it now.

      Also saw this post on torquing the housing.

        This is the exact gasket I purchased from ECS! No brained to go with viton for this. Didn’t even know about it until I saw it referenced in a build journal post about the oil pressure valve.

        Excellent point on the torque method. I’ll hand tighten top 4 evenly, then do a Star pattern torque on the top 4 , and finish with the bottom 2.

            Just fyi, looks like they did the timing incorrectly. You're supposed to torque the hub bolts with the VANOS fully seated against the head, not with it off. Follow TIS or the Beisan procedure and you'll be good.

              That's my video. Car's been running fine for 30k miles

              If you put it back together the same way you took it off it's perfectly fine. If you're swapping parts and don't have a reference then the Beisan way is the way to go for sure.

                      Is it just me or does the link for every DIY from “Replacing e46 side view mirror glass” down take you to this specific post??

                      (Note that this is only in Tapatalk, so I suspect it’s something weird for just me, but pretty odd)

                          I’m getting the same thing trying several DIY links using the Tapatalk App.
