Good write up.

Having done it on my last E46 330d, it looks even harder on an E90! Basically the same location etc., but more fiddling.

Mind the worst bit about the E46 was the rear hex bolts holding on the "last" cover over the air filter - very difficult access / easy to cross thread a bolt! Would you say this is still the worst bit?

How much is the air filter element these days?

Ditto "shoot the designer" - especially for not taking the opportunity to make it easier when the engine was updated!
