For the OP, I seem to have the same issue as yours. I answered your other thread re: tech inspection and also planning at least two weekends of DE in Aug and Oct, so hopefully I pass. If not, would you mind PMing me or posting here how much you spent on the VCG/ESS gasket fix. I have looked on the DIY, and it's a bit intimidating tbh.
The cost was C$608.50 or about US$470. Now that price has a bit of a discount due to my membership in our local BMW club. Essentially the work is supposed to take 4.3 hours. The owner of the shop is a big sponsor of our club and both he and 1 of his mechanics will be instructors.
