Fit my recovered wheel this morning - .2kW extra ...

Any 4mo guys changed the valve cover gasket and valve seals on a V6 (BDE)? How complex would this be? Is the bentley manual the best place to start?
spent today taking off the engine mounts, dog bone mount and clutch slave cylinder. good progress i think, tomorrow will be replacing clutch, fly wheel, and water pump/timing belt.

and even videos on YouTube detailing the process. (Some show removing the instrument cluster to get access to the rear of the wheel, but you shouldn't need to do that if you have a medium sized flat-blade screwdriver. You will however need a 12mm multi-point bit or similar to undo the wheel itself though.)
P.S. I disconnected the battery prior to removing the airbag just to be on the safe side.
Thanks, that's the info I need. I have the 4 spoke one and fitting a 3 spoke.Quote:
