2013 x5 issues found during oil change

thanks, looks like a handy tool set to have. I am looking at trying one of these. https://palmac.net/koken-3450m-11-3-...cket-nut-grip/

for my housing there is about 3/16 of an inch between the manifold and the bolt i need to take out. even if I got something on it, there is not enough room to remove the bolt without removing the manifold. as for the rear bolt on the manifold, I am still not sure I am going to be able to get my hand in there to get anything on it. I will try to get some pics with my inspection camera and see what I am working with.

That is a very cool grip socket.

The tight fit socket set also each socket has 11mm flats can be turned from the side. That had come in useful at least once
