The tool I used was made for X5 models only, but I put some links below to the subframe tools you can find for other models, since they work very similarly and the procedure is the same.

I posted a 3d printed request in the last video? (E39 phone slot replacement) I have a second request for you to 3d print. Not sure how big you can go? I want a 4" turbo inlet that holds a flat filter to fit behind a e36/e46 top mount.
Made it look so easy man good work
Welcome back. Taking timeout with a few months of downtime does the world of good. Let's you get more jobs done without being slowed down with film making (which good to replenish finances). More importantly it does you good, you can tell to look at your face. You look more relaxed, recharged and fresh. You actually look far less stressed and tired, more youthful. Maybe the annual end of year break from here on?
Excellent video!! do you know if they make a tool for the 335i e90?
Glad you're back! Looking forward to see your new content. Great video, BTW.
Great you're back Chris. I was planning to send you a message about what's up. Me, I'm still waiting for a normal price for 6 index 12 injectors. But instead of going down in price they went up to $450 each, because of inflation they say at the dealership. Have a great weekend, Dutch regards, Nico.
ayy i missed seeing your content!
Good to see you back. Will check out your other channel!
Yeah!!! Great to see you again!!
Woot woot! Welcome back-
Good job ! my 2001 E53 3.0i X5 went through same rear sub frame bushings.
