Cool, thanks slick. Kind of gives me some peace of mind. I was scared of doing the CCV because I saw a youtube video doing it on a 3 series, but I guess on these X's it's a lot easier. I guess I might as well just replace it.

I plan on doing what you suggest before the oil change. Do you recommend any over the counter Engine Flush things? Those ones you add to the oil and run for 5-10 mins before draining the oil? I used to use them on my Fords and Toyotas but have never used it on the X since the parts guys at the dealership just said to change the oil and filter and do nothing else. Figure something extra might help with the sludge tho?
