M5James,

Was there any special tooling needed to replace the "Filtered Air Ducts"? I'm noticing the same oil residue on mine and have a slight rough idle. About how long did this job take and are there any major sticking points?

Thank you,

-Greg

Here's my cracked tubes, they were the typical brittle BMW plastic and broke completely at the slightest touch w/ 63k.
