    Anyone know the correct install procedure for the valvetronic motor on a N52 engine (X5 E70)?
    I understand that when you insert it into the valve cover/cylinder head it doesn’t go all the way in. You then have to use 4mm Allen key to wind the motor clockwise and then this pulls the motor into alignment with the mounting bolt(s).
    After securing the mounting bolts and all other components disassembled to remove the motor you carry out a motor relearn and away she goes.
    Does this sound right?
