Great video, Andrew! Wish I had seen this before tackling mine. I don't think 04 E53 N62 original design alternator had the sliding nut. The replacement I got did though. That extra couple of millimeters made it much easier to get back in.

[mention]bmwfan0101 [/mention] found the video. I'm pretty sure all the air cooled alternators have the threaded insert. I didn't notice it existed the first time I removed my alternator but I did the second time and the improvement in the ease of install can't be exaggerated.

i must admit its a job that was heaps easier than it looks if it wasn't for the dam water pipe breaking , think i might need to replace battery before winter as the volts are mid 14s when running but when i turn key in morning after being left over night its in the 11s still starts fine but for peace of mind will get new battery before winter.
