Just saw this.
My guy Alberto at Motive Auto Works in Woburn just did mine.
Should be about a 4 hour job or so.
Good dude, stands behind his work.
I've been taking my BMW's and modded Subaru's to him for the last 4 years now.

just curious, are you burning oil? I thought my valve cover gasket was fucked, but it turned out to be my turbo seals

Turner Motorsport in Amesbury is my rec. They're a bit far from Medford, but do have loaners if you book in advance. Great place, they know BMW's.

Don't think I am , after removing the under Carriage gaurd I seen a lot of gunk build up and which looks like valve cover was leaking and dripping down
