Think I would see anything with the VC removed? I could see the valves with the intake off but I need to commit before I remove that. Plus I guess the intake has to come off before the engine can be pulled anyway.

Maybe I'll do a compression test on the S52 engine before I do anything to the X5.

I'm reluctant to pull only the head in case the rings let loose.
