Is there a HOW TO guide for CPS replacement?

[GAZ666]

I have looked everywhere and cannot find a decent HOW TO guide, on how to remove and replace the intake side camshaft position sensor on a 728i.

Is there one about?

Is this an easy job for DIY?

If it's anything like the V8, it's so easy, a caveman can do it.

Only if that caveman has a 5mm allen hex tool.

And doesn't decide to eat it.

Ok cool.. 5mm allen key, is that all thats needed? I've read that I'd have to remove the oil filter housing for decent access....

[TheLadiesMan]

I don't know if you do that on the I6, but I'm sure you can just relocated it instead of removing it completely...

Cool.. I've found an awesome guide with pics on danzee . org so looks like I'm all set to get this problem sorted! thanks for your help
