Does anyone know where the starter is located on a f10 M5?

Maybe going crazy , but seems you may need to drop the subframe to change the starter . Anyone where it is exactly ?

Its definitely hidden away. If you remove the reinforcement plate on the front subframe you might gain enough access.

Yeah that one. Looks more than possible to me. It's on the right hand side of the engine block.
