Not a huge deal, just wanted to say that they really packed it in there, and it's more difficult to get to than the filter on my E90.

Anyone else DIY'd this yet? Going to change the oil next.
I changed my filter last month. Took a while to confirm that I indeed had to remove the brace to replace the filter. Strange to need to undo bolts for a periodic maintenance item. It would have been nice for BMW to put this in the owner's manual.
