Has anyone replaced 'intercooler' on F10 528i?

Hello,

I am looking for an instruction or video on how to remove an intercooler on 2013 F10 528i. I tried to find a video for this exact car but wasn't able to do so (although i did find few similiar ones).

Comparing with videos for other BMW cars, it looks like i will just have to disconnect the two charge pipe (one on each side), undo maybe 3 or 4 screws, then simply pull it out. Judging by realoem and this screenshot, I think only difference is that my intercooler has this two brackets (17518517032) which needs to be taken out too.

Is my assesment correct? Will I have to drain the coolent for this job (I don't think this is required)?


Below is the pic of the intercooler and one of the bracket.
