First remove the plugs, turn the crank manually with a ratchet, pull the fuel pump fuse and crank it until you have oil pressure.
Thanks for the advice, Guido. I appreciate it. Luckily, I did have that in my notes. There are some very thorough DIYs on the M3 forums, some here, videos on YouTube, hints and tips in forum follow-ups, etc. It's scattered about, but amazing how much information is available for us.

If I don't get in over my head on this, I'll document everything on the Z4M, and make up a thorough DIY for us.
