Is it really that bad? All you have to do is pop the top of the engine off basically which is right in front of you and slap a new gasket on it. Never done it to a bmw but done it to a lot of other vehicles

Lol. Is it really that hard? No not hard but takes forever and while you're there you should do the plugs and the gasket for that thing that sticks in the valve cover (forget what it's called).
