Crank hub DIY

My 2015 F80 with 68k needed a new valve cover, so I just want a head and did my crank hub.

BMW F8X M3, M4 & M2 CRANK HUB DIY.

Thanks for the video. I am thinking of tackling this myself over the winter with the splined hub. Other than being down for a few days is there anything overly tricky about it?

Not really, removing the fan was a pain, I did the job with the car on the floor. Once you start you really can't move the car anymore, I didn't unmounted the fan pump when I was under the car. It was a pain getting it from the top.

any BMW specific tools you purchased other than the timing kit from Amazon?

was this the one you used? https://www.amazon.ca/Garage-Camshaf...ct_top?ie=UTF8

Nope, just the timing tool and yes that’s the one.
