Would you be able to find instructions on removing this engine? I already gotten a bunch of stuff out but needing information on how to remove the fan and radiator than anything else, and if the radiator is needed to be removed
inline 6 cyl turbo engine, RWD.

I removed torque converter bolts and all the above, can't find the starter, is it under the intake like most of these BMWs?

I am trying to remove the intake manifold but the computer underneath has many connectors. Can you see if there are instructions on how to remove it? Can't seem to find a way. I removed couple of the big connectors, but the smaller ones are hard to remove.
