BMW X5 M how to get to map sensors anyone

Wondering if anyone knows the easiest way to get to the map sensors on the intake manifolds underneath? It’s on a 2010 e70 x5M. Thanks!

Well the passenger side is accessible from the top depending how big your arms are and flexibility. Driver side is impossible from up top as the coolant tank and power steering hoses are in the way. Removing the subframe plastic covers (lower part of the wheel well covers) may get you access to it. While you’re in there check your ground strap if it’s looking greenish color.

Yea that’s what it was kinda looking like. But that’s the route I’ll go then. Thanks!
