2013 R56S, how complex is a water pump pulley swap going to be?

cant seem to find any videos specific to replacing the pulley. It looks fairly straightforward, but maybe in a tigh space. Part is $40, but dealership is asking for $350+. Wouldn’t mind doing it myself if it’s not terribly difficult.

anyone familiar? Any guides? Can’t seem to find one for my model.

Just the pulley can be done by pulling the fender liner and swapping it. If you still have trouble you can take the engine mount bolts out and lower the engine to get it out.

While there are a few extra steps for the S, this non-S video does a great job of showing what needs to be done.
