How to Replace the Exhaust Manifold Gasket on BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Checks and maintenance

To replace the intake manifold gasket on a BMW 3 Series, open the hood to access the components inside the engine bay. The intake manifold must be completely detached from its housing by prying it with an object like a screwdriver. Once the manifold is detached, you can access the gasket located underneath it to remove the old gasket. Now you can insert the new one, reattaching the previously removed manifold.
