I forgot to post after I had done this. I got it completed in my garage in about 3.5 hours, and that includes a significant amount of time trying to figure out how to remove the cooling fan and, and figuring out where all of the EGR cooler bolts were. Doing it over again I think I could have it done in 1.5 hours. Knowing what I know after going through it, I would seriously question any quote (assuming they weren't 1st timers like I was) that specifies 3.5 hours of labor.
Not saying that anybody got ripped off, just trying to provide some information to help people ask the right questions in the future. As BMW owners, there are plenty of shops out there waiting to suck an extra Benjamin or 2 out of us. |

Yep, the driver's side tab hinges inward to clear the upper radiator hose. Both tabs just sort of clip into their mounts, and that wasn't obvious at first glance. Pressing just above them with a screwdriver will allow the fan to lift out.
