CAUTION-
Disconnecting the battery may erase fault code@) storedin
memoiy Check for fault codes prior to disconnecting the
battery cables.
If the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light, also may be
called "Check Engine" or "Service Engine Soon" light)
is illuminated, see
OBD On-Board Diagnostics for
DME fault code information.
It orhersysrem faults have been detected, as indicated I
by an ~llum~nated ABS, SRS orASC/DSC ~arning light,
see the appropriate repair group in this manual or an
authorized BMW dealer for more information on fault
codes.
NOTE- Engine removal procedures are similar for all 6-cylinder
models. When differences
exist, they are noted at the be-
ginning of each step. Engine are referred to by engine
code. See
100 Engine-General for engine code and appli-
cation information.
@ Be sure to cover all painted surfaces before beginning the
removal procedure. As an aid to installation, label all com-
ponents, wires and hoses before removing them. Do not
reuse
gaskets, O-rings or seals during reassembly.
The
intake manifold must be removed on &cylinder mod-
els before the engine can be removed.
WARNING-
Due to risk of personal injury, be sure the engine is cold be-
fore beginning the removal procedure.

NOTE-
BMW uses three styles of fuel line connections; a one-time
single use clamp, a locking fitting that uses special tool
16 1
050 to release, and a quick release sleeve (arrow) that dis-
connects the line when depressed.
WARNING-
Fuel may be expelled under pressure. Do not smoke or work
near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher
handy Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a cloth around
fuel hoses to absorb any leaking fuel. Plug all
oDen fuel lines.
< M52 engine: Remove throttle valve and ASC throttle
assemblies.
Disconnect ASC throttle cable
(A).
Remove ASC throttle housing mounting fasteners (El).
Clamp off, disconnect, and plug coolant hoses (C).
Disconnect throttle and cruise control cables (D).
Remove throttle housing mounting hardware and throttle
valve.
NOTE-
M52 TU, M54 engine: Throttle body is removed with intake
manifold.
< M52 TU engine: Pull throttle cable out of rubber retainer (A)
and unloclc ball end of cable (6) from throttle actuator.

(0).
Raise car and support in a safe manner.
CAUTION-
Male sure the car is stable and well supported at aN times.
Use a professional automotive
lifi orjackstands designed for
I the ouroose. A floor jack is not adequate support.

Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
4 Working above engine, disconnect the following:
Vent line from cylinder head cover
(A).
. Oxygen sensor connectors (B).
Electrical harness connector from VANOS solenoid
valve
(C).
Electrical harness connectors at throttle valve position
switch
(D), ASC valve position switch (E), fuel injector har-
ness
(F) and vent valve (G).
CAUTION-
Be sure to mark oxygen sensor harness connectors so that
they can be reassembled correctly Do not interchange con-
nectors.
4 Where applicable, remove schraeder valve cap (arrow) from
air connection on fuel rail. Using a tire chuck, blow fuel back
through feed line using a brief burst of compressed air (max-
imum of
3 bar or 43.5 psi).
WARNING-
. Fuel in fuel line is underpressure (approx. 3 - 5 bar or 45 -
75 psi) and may be expelled. Do not smoke or work near
heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher
handy Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a cloth
around fuel hoses to absorb any leaking fuel. Catch and
dispose of escaped fuel. Plug open fuel lines.
- Always unscrew the fuel rank cap ro release pressure
;n the tank before working on the tank or lines.
Disconnect fuel lines by sliding locking collar in (arrows) and
pulling lines apart.
NOTE-
BMW uses three styles of fuel line connections; a one-time
use
clamp; a locking fitting that uses BMWspecial tool 16 1
050 to release; and a quick release sleeve (above) that dis-
connects the line when depressed.

MS 42.0 throttle valve assembly, replacing
< The motor driven throttle valve for the MS 42.0 system is re-
- ferred to as MDK (motor driven throttle valve). The MDK unit
is electronically operated to regulate intake air flow by the
ECM.
The
MS 42.0 system uses a throttle cable from the accelera-
tor pedal to the MDK unit. The throttle cable is connected di-
rectly to the integral pedal position sensor
(PWG) in the MDK
unit. This sensor communicates pedal position to the ECM,
which in turn electronically regulates throttle plate position.
The MDK pulley is linked to the throttle shaft by springs to al-
low ASC intervention to override the driver's pedal position.
NO TE -
The MDIC unit is non-adjustable and must be replaced as
a complete unit if found to be faulty.
if replacing the
MDK unit, the adaptation values stored in
the ECM must be clearedand the new unit initialized using
BMW special service tools.
CAUTION-
If the adaptation process is not completed correct& the en-
gine wiii
not start.
- Disconnect battery negative (-) cable in luggage compart-
ment.
CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the battern read the battely discon-
nection cautions in
001 General Warnings and Cautions.
