Engine Removal and lnstallation
- Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following:
Replace all gaskets. O-rings and seals.
Use new fuel injector seals
Check that engine drive belts properly engage pulley
grooves.
Inspect O-ring seal between mass air flow sensor and air
filter housing. To facilitate reassembly, coat seal with acid-
free grease.
Change engine oil and filter and
check all other fluid levels.

Cylinder Head Removal and lnstallation
NOTE-
Be Sure the secondary timing chain tensioner is locked down
and the exhaust
camshaif mounting bolts are loose before
proceeding.
- Install VANOS control unit. See VANOS control unit, install-
ing
(M52 engine) in 117 Camshaft Timing Chain.
CAUTION--
Incorrect installation ofthe VANOS control may result in dam-
age to the engine valvefrain.
- Install exhaust manifolds using new gaskets and nuts. Coat
manifold studs with copper paste prior to installing nuts.
Install intake camshaft cover and cylinder
head cover.
Check for correct seating of half-moon seals
(A) in back of
cylinder head cover.
Use a small amount of Three Bond 1209
O or equivalent
sealant at corners
(6) of half-moon cutouts.
Seat gasket and seal corners in front of cylinder head at
VANOS unit.
- Installation of remaining parts is reverse of removal, noting
the following:
Reinstall electrical harness connectors for oil pressure
switch and coolant temperature sensor before installing in-
take manifold.
Refill cooling system as described in 170 Radiator and
Cooling System.
Change engine oil and filter as described in 020 Mainte-
nance.
If necessary, adjust accelerator cable.
Reconnect battery last.

CYLINDER MEAD REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION (M62 ENGINE)
This procedure covers cylinder head removal and installation
for the
M62 V-8 engine. Procedures forthe M62 TU VANOS
engine are not covered in this manual.
Intake manifold, left cylinder head, and right cylinder head re-
moval and installation are written as separate procedures.
The intake manifold must be removed before the cylinder
heads can be removed.
WARNING
-
Due to risk of personal injuv be sure the engine is cold be-
fore beginning the removal procedure.
Cylinder head removal and installation requires multiple spe-
cial service tools. Read the entire procedure before beginning
the repair.

The camshaft position sensors are used by the englne man-
agement system for VANOS control, sequential fuel injection
and knock control.
Intake camshaft position sensor, replacing
(M52,M52 TU
and M54 engines)
- Make certain ignition has been turned off.
- Remove plastic cover from above fuel injectors by prying off
bolt covers and removing cover mounting bolts.
Remove complete air filter housing:
Disconnect electrical harness connector on mass air flow
sensor
(A).
Detach vacuum line at intake boot (B).
Loosen hose clamp at intake boot and detach air duct con-
nections
(C).
* Disconnect cold air duct tube (D).
Remove filter housing mounting screws (E).
- Disconnect harness connector from VANOS solenoid and
unscrew solenoid from VANOS control unit. Be prepared with
shop rags to catch oil released from VANOS unit.
Remove camshaft sensor (arrow) from
left front of cyl~nder
head, next to top of oil filter housing.
Disconnect camshaft sensor harness from under intake
manifold. Prior to removal, attach a stiff piece of wire to the
harness connector end to preserve proper routing of harness
for reinstallation.
Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following:
Use new O-rings when installing sensor and solenoid.
Be sure wiring is rerouted in same orientation.
