CPV replacement on a Z4M

I've seen the DIY online for the E46 M3, but I was wondering if anyone has changed theirs on the Z4M?

Mine is leaking and if you haven't checked yours lately, check it because it probably is leaking too! Doesn't seem to hard of a DIY, just curious if we could access it from up top?

You have to get at it from under the car. It's an extremely easy DIY. Just pinch the cable a bit and there should be little to no fluid lost. I personally didn't need a clutch bleed afterwards, so I'm assuming it's the same for others.

Oh, I'm talking about the constant check valve on the passenger side, not the clutch delay valve

oops, was viewing from my phone. Didn't pay attention to the 'P' vs. 'D' haha, my bad. I'm not sure about the check valve unfortunately.

I haven't done it, but I do believe there is a more permanent fix/part if you do decide to replace it. m3forum.net has some details.
