The valve cover is good too, the membrane failing doesn't necessarily mean your cover is on the way out.
Amazing that your 330i is approaching 200k Soup, gives me a lot of hope as I’ve just bought mine a few months ago at 57k and planning on keeping it for the long term. I’ve read most of your threads and looks like I’ll also need to purchase Noxem as I have the Nox ageing cat code- as you say probably makes more sense to get this sooner due to the fuel savings on offer . Have you replaced your water pump yet? Seems like the last big ticket item on my list to get sorted.
Thanks for putting this info out there- has helped many a N53 owner I’m sure.
