Camshaft Timing chain1
Timing chains, removing
(M52 TU and M54 engines)
Camshaft timing chain removal requires that the oil pan be re-
moved. See
119 Lubrication System. Also required is re-
moval of the VANOS control
unit and disassembly of the
intake and exhaust camshaft sprocket assemblies as de-
scribed earlier in this repair group.
Special BMW
service tools are needed for timing chain re-
moval and installation. The special tools assure proper timing
of the valvetrain. Precise
marlts to set the timing on the cam:
shafts are not provided for reassembly. Read the procedures
through before beginning the job.
CA
UTION-
If the camshafts are not properly timed, the pistons can con-
tact the valves.
- D~sconnect negative (-) cable from battery.
CAUTION-
* Disconnecting the battery may erase fault code@) stored in
control module memory. Check for fault codes using spe-
cial
BMW diagnostic equipment.
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery dis-
connection
cautfons given in 001 General Cautions
and
Warninqs.
- Remove VANOS control unit. See VANOS control unit, re-
moving
(M52 TU and M54 engines).
Remove sealing plug from crankcase below starter and se-
cure crankshaft with
BMW special tool ll 2 300.
Drain engine cooling system. See 170 Radiator and Cool-
ing System.
Remove belt driven cooling fan, fan shroud, and thermostat
housing. See
170 Radiator and Cooling System.
Remove drive belts. See
020 Maintenance.
NOTE-
Mark direction of belt rotation if reusing belt.
- Remove water pump pulley fasteners and pulley.
- Drain engine oil and remove oil pan as described in 119
Lubrication System.

lnstall crankshaft holding tool (BMW special tool 11 8 190/11
8 200). Make sure cut outs in tool engages openings in
damper assembly. While counterholding crankshaft with
special tool, remove crankshaft center bolt (A).
CAUTION-
Do not use flywheel locking tool to hold crankshaft stationary
NOTE-
The crankshaft hub centerbolt is tightened to a torque of 410
Nm (300 ft-lb).
4 Install crankshaft damper puller (BMW special tool 11 8 210)
to 11 8 200. and (A) remove damper from crankshaft.
The crankshaft must not be allowed to rotate when the timing
chains are loosened or removed. The pistons can contact the
valves. Use appropriate crankshaft holding tool when loosen-
ing crankshaft hub center bolt.
Using a drift of less than
5 mm diameter, drive two locating
dowels in left and right sides of lower timing
cham cover to-
ward engine. Remove cover mounting bolts
(arrows) and
carefully lift cover off.

UTION-
* Use care when removing the cover from the cylinder heao
gasket. If the cover is stuck, use a sharp
knife to separate
it from the headgasket.
If cylinder liead gasket Is damaged, remove cylinder
head and replace head gasket. See
113 Cylinder
head and valvetrain.
NOTE-
- The chain cover can be removed with the coolant pump in-
stalled.
Use care when removing the cover from the coolant pipe
at rear.
- Push primary chain tensioner guide rail aside and remove
chain.

Camshaft timing chain removal requires that the engine oil
pan be removed.
Special
BMW service tools are needed for timing chain re-
moval and installation procedures. The special tools assure
propertiming of thevaivetrain. Precise marks to set the timing
on the camshafts are not provided for reassembly. Read the
procedures through before beginning the job.
CAUTION-
Special BMW service tools are needed for this procedure.
Read the procedure through before beginning the job. If the
camshafts are notproperly timed, the pistons can contact the
valves.

are locked in the TDC installation position with special lock-
ing tools as shown earlier.
4 lnspect timing chain sprocltets and chain. Inspect guide rail
and tensioner rail
(arrows) for grooves caused by chain con-
tact. Replace any part that is worn or damaged.
NOTE-
If any sprocl(ets are being replaced due to wear, the chain
should also be replaced.
If the crankshaft sprocket requires
replacement, the oil pump
drive sprocket and chain must be
removed. See
119 Lubrication System for oilpump removal
information.
- If removed, reinstall timing chain tensioning rail, reversing
rail, and guide rail.
If tensioning rail was removed, replace O-ring at tensioning
rail oil guide.

Lubrication System
This repair group covers lubrication system troubleshooting
as well as oil pan removal and oil pump replacement.
In 6-cylinder models, removal of the oil pan requires the re-
moval of the exhaust system and some front suspension
components. Those procedures are fully covered in:
180 Exhaust System
210 Clutch
230 Manual Transmission
0 240 Automatic Transmission
310 Front Suspension
320 Steering and Wheel Alignment
NOTE-
Oil change procedure and oil filter replacement are covered
in
020 Maintenance.
CAUTIOG
V8 engines: The oil pump fasteners (including the sprocket
retaining nut) are known to vibrate loose. This can result in oil
starvation and engine failure. Be sure to check oil bolts and
nut tightness whenever the
oilpump is accessible. If any fas-
teners are found to be loose, remove them and reinstall with
Loctite
Band torque to specifications.
Special tools
The engine needs to be properly supported while the front
suspension
subframe is lowered to access the oil pan.
A standard oil pressure gauge may be used for measuring oil
pressure.

Engine lubrication
Oil pressure is generated by a gear-type pump bolted to the
bottom oi the engine block. The oil pump is chain driven off
the front of the crankshaft.
Table a. Engine oil capacity (includes oil filter replacement)
6-cylinder 6.5
liters (6.9
US qt)
V-8 7.5 liters (7.9 US qt)
The oil pressure warning system consists of an oil pressure
switch mounted in the oil circuit and an instrument
panel
warning light. Other saiety features include:
Q A filter bypass to provide lubrication should the oil filter be-
come clogged.
An oil pump pressure relief valve to prevent excessive sys-
tem pressure.
CAUTIOI\C
If the red oil pressure warning light comes on or flashes on
while driving, always assume that the oilpressure is low. Stop
the engine immediately and make arrangements to test oil
pressure.
