Brakes, bleeding
The procedure below requires a BMW Service Tester (DIS-
pluslGTl/MoDiC).
- Determine type of traction control (ASC, DSC with precharge
pump, DSC without precharge pump). Be sure to use correct
specification brake fluid, according to application table below.
Brake fluid applications
ABS I ASC and ABS / DSC models DOT 4 brake fluid
with precharge pump (to 911998)
ABS I DSC models without precharge DOT 4 low viscosity
pump (911998 and later) brake
fluid
< Remove left side interior ventilation microfilter housing:
Remove upper cover and microfilter loclting clip
(A).
Release locking clamp (B), and rotate air tube in direction
of arrow to remove.
Disconnect wiring harness from hood switch
(C).
Release filter body mounting clamp (D) and remove lower
microfilter housing.
- Top off bralte fluid in reservoir and connect BMW Service
Tester to
20 pin Data Link Connector (DLC) under hood or 16
pin
DLCIOBD I1 connector under dash.
- Call up service function Bleeding ABS / ASC or service func-
tion Bleeding ABS
/ DSC, depending on installed system.
- Fill pressure bleeding device with the correct brake fluid and
connect to brake fluid reservoir and apply pressurize.
Do not exceed a pressure of
2 bar (29 psi) when pressure
bleeding the
brake system. Excessive pressure will damage
4 Starting at right rear wheel, connect bleed hose and fluid re-
ceptacle to bleeder screw (arrow).
CA UTlON-
Bleeder hose must always remain submersed in clean brake
fluid whenever the bleeder valve is open.

CAUTlOI\C
Brake fluid is highly corrosive and dangerous to the environ-
ment. Dispose of it properly.
4 Remove left side interior ventilation microfilter housing:
Remove upper cover and microfilter locking clip
(A).
- Release locking clamp (B), and rotate air tube in direction
of arrow to remove.
Disconnect wiring harness from hood switch
(C).
Release filter body mounting clamp (D) and remove lower
microfilter housing.
4 Remove side trim panel from left rear of engine compartment
by releasing clips
(arrows).
4 Disconnect bralte fluid level sensor connector (A) from fluid
reservoir. Remove reservoir cap.
. Using a clean syringe, empty bralte fluid reservoir.
Where applicable, disconnect hydraulic clutch system sup-
ply line from fluid reservoir duct
(5). Keep supply line sup-
ported and above clutch master cylinder to prevent air
bubbles from reaching clutch hydraulic system.
Where applicable, disconnect DSC system precharge
pump supply line from fluid reservoir duct
(C). Secure sup-
ply line in vertical position to prevent fluid loss.
Plug open brake fluid lines and ducts to prevent fluid leak-
age or contamination.
- Remove brake fluid reservoir by tilting sideways.

Disconnect master cylinder brake lines (A)
Plug open brake lines to prevent contamination.
Remove master cylinder mounting nuts
(6) and remove
cylinder.
NOTE-
It may be necessary to remove the brake booster with master
cylinder attached due to limited access.
Bralce master cylin-
dercan then be removed from booster. See Brake booster,
removing and installing later
in this repair group.
- During reinstallation, make sure all nuts, fluid couplings,
thread bores, and mating surfaces are clean.
- Mount master cylinder to bralte booster using new sealing O-
ring and new self-locking nuts.
CAUTIOI\C
* Be sure to align master cylinderpushrod and booster
pushrod.
* Do not over-torque master cylinder mounting nuts. This
could damage the brake booster and prevent proper
vacuum build-up.

- Carefully reinstall fluid reservoir using new sealing grommets.
- Reconnect precharge pump fluid supply hose, if applicable. -
- Reconnect hydraulic clutch fluid supply hose, if applicable.
- Remainder of installation is reverse of removal.
Top up with fresh brake fluid.

Remove snap ring from steering shaft.
- Slide steering angle sensor off steering shaft
< Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following.
Take care to line up loclting pin
(arrow) with mount hole in
sensor.
Perform steering angle offset test using BMW scan tools
DISplus, GT1, or MoDiC. Once calibrated, the sensor
sends a confirmation ID code to the DSC control module
to indicate proper calibration.
DSC precharge pump, removing and
installing
(1 998 models)
1998 V-8 cars with Bosch DSC Ill v. 5.3 are equipped with a
DSC precharge pump mounted in the engine compartment.
There is no separate precharge pump in the Bosch DSC
Ill v.
5.7 system (1999 models and later).
WARNING-
E39 cars require special BMWservice equipment to properly
bleed the brakes. Removal of hydraulic components is not
recommended unless this equipment is available. For safety
reasons, the
brake system on cars with ABS must be bled us-
ing the procedures described in this repair group.
- Using a clean syringe, empty brake fluid reservoir.
