brokenbim is on a distinguished road
re-torque valve cover and valvetronic to stop oil leaks

As title says, can it be done temporarily without issue? (Maybe even a touch tighter then specs call for?)

x5 e70 3.0si n52n

Aluminum mounting bolts (magnesium valve cover) – 7Nm (5 ft-lb) + 90 degrees
Steel mounting bolts (plastic valve cover) – 9Nm (7 ft-lb)

Valvetronic actuator motor 4 Nm (3 ft-lb)? (IS this correct? cant find this info...)

The valvetronic would not need re calibrated if not removing? (Only re-tightening bolts.)
