Just a quick heads up:
I just found out that the four bolts for the drive shaft are ONE TIME USE ONLY. They will back out if you reuse them because the threads have already been stretched. Apparently BMW started using these aluminum one-time-use bolts in 2008 for weight reduction due to stricter average MPG requirements.
