DIY - How To Remove / Swap an N52 Engine (3 Series - E90)

I have a 2005 BMW 325i (N52B25) with a real bad oil burning problem. So I decided to rebuild the engine. The following video series is everything you need to remove the n52 engine and put it back in again. I hope this can help educate any of you looking to do the same engine removal / swap (even on a n54, n55 or e91, e92 car). I had to piece together a lot of information and have many people to thank (including in this forum) so I hope the video series can help many of you to keep your cars running strong!
