I'd consider doing it if I had the time If I were to do it, it'd have to be until after the new year.
.. and if you had a warm place to work.
It's not that hard of a job to do - the lengthy part is draining the antifreeze, after that you disconnect a few bolts, clips, and hoses... and it pretty much slides out. Repeat process in reverse and it's back in.
But thinking of doing that in the recent cold makes my fingers cringe.
Good luck though!
In case you don't already have it, make sure you have two gallons of BMW antifreeze on hand, as well as two gallons of distilled water. You can't re-use drained anti-freeze.
