I Camshaft Timing Chain - --
Install BMW special tool 11 6 150 (VANOS setup bracket) to
front of cylinder head timing case. Tighten nuts
(arrows) by
hand, and then tighten down uniformly until special tool is in
full contact with cylinder head.
CAUTION-
Male sure all gasket material is removed from face of cylin-
der head. Clean
sealins face and keep free of oil.
Secure camshaft impulse sprockets and wheels:
Pretighten Torx screws
(A) on exhaust camshaft impulse
wheel to approx.
5 Nm (44 in-lb).
Pretighten mounting nuts
(B) on exhaust and intake
sprocket assemblies to approx.
5 Nm (44 in-lb).

- Remove flywheel locking tool from transmission bellhousing
so that crankshaft is no longer locked.
- Remove camshaft locking tools from rear of cylinder head.
- Crank engine over twice by hand in direction of rotation until
cylinder
1 intake and exhaust camshaft lobes face each other - again.
- Secure crankshaft with BMW special tool 11 2 300.
4 Place BMW special tool 11 3 240 over camshaft ends and
measure clearance of tool to cylinder head surface.
NOJE-
If the exhaust side of the tool (A) is not flush with the head,
camshaft timing
Is incorrect. Repeat camshaft timing pro-
cedure.
* Due to flexible sprocket design and VANOS control unit tol-
erances and play, the
intake side of special tool 11 3 240
(6) may be up to 1 mm (0.04 in) above the sudace of the
cylinder head. This is normal. Otherwise, repeat camshaft
timing procedure.

4 Support subframe from below using BMW special tool 31 2
220 and appropriate shop lift. Remove
subframe mounting
bolts and lower
subframe as far as possible.
Remove oil pan screws (arrows) at cylinder block and trans-
mission bellhousing. Lower and remove oil pan.
NOTE-
If oil pan will not slide backwards, disconnect stabilizer bar
links and lower front axle support further.
If the oil pan does not separate easily from the engine cylin-
der
block, a few taps with a rubber malletshould breakit free.
Do not
pry the oil pan loose.
When installing oil pan: Thoroughly clean all old gasket material from mating sur-
faces and use a new gasket.
Apply a small amount of non-hardening sealer
(3 Bond
12098 or equivalent) to oil pan gasket directly below joints
(arrows) for end cover and front timing case cover. Apply
a bead
3 mm wide by 2 mm high.
Install all oil pan bolts finger tight. Tighten oil pan bolts to-
ward front of engine first, then pan bolts at transmission
end.

Fuel Injection
- Disconnect intake air boot from throttle housing. Unbolt throt-
tle housing and lay aside. It is not necessary to disconnect
throttle cable or electrical harness connectors from throttle housing.
- Remove electrical harness connector from IAT sensor.
- Unclip temperature sensor and remove from intake manifold.
- Installation is reverse of removal. Use a new gasket at throttle
housing.
Throttle position sensor (TPS),
testing and replacing
4 The throttle position sensor (arrow) is located on top of the
throttle valve housing and provides the ECM with a voltage
value that represents throttle position (angle) and rate of
movement.
TheTPS is non-adjustable. If the throttle position sensor is re-
placed, the previous 'learned' TPS settings must be cleared
from the ECM using a BMW-compatible scan tool.
If the throttle position sensor signal is defective, afault code is
stored and the
MILis illuminated when OBD II fault criteria are
exceeded. The ECM still operates the engine using the mass
air flow
(MAF) sensor and engine rpm inputs.
- Check throttle position sensor function by disconnecting har-
ness connector and checking continuity across terminals. If
test results are incorrect,
replace throttle position sensor. The
sensor is non-adjustable.

The idle speed control valve is mounted under the intake
manifold. Accessing the valve is best accomplished by first
removing the air filter housing and the throttle housing.
< Disconnect intake air boot from throttle housing. Unbolt throt-
tle body and lay aside. Do not disconnect throttle cable or
electrical harness connectors to throttle body.
NOTE-
For additional worlcing room, unfasten and lift out the com.
plete air filter housing.
- Working under intake manifold, disconnect electrical harness
connector from idle speed control valve.
Unbolt dipstick tube
bracket (A) from intalte manifold.
- Remove two bolts (B) retaining idle speed control valve to un-
derside of intalte manifold. Remove valve from intalte mani-
fold. Remove hose clamp and disconnect hose.
- Installation is reverse of removal. Use new gaskets when in-
stalling.

Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump
4 Working underneath car, pinch off supply and return fuel hos-
es (arrows), then disconnect hoses from rigid metal lines.
- Remove right rear wheel and wheel housing splash shield.
4 Worlting at right rear wheel housing, loosen hose clamp
(arrow) and disconnect filler pipe from tank.
- Support tank from below. Remove tank strap mounting bolts.
Lower and remove tank, disconnecting right side vent and
other
hoses/electrical connectors as necessary.
Always use new seals, gaskets, O-rings, and hose clamps.
lnspect hoses and replace any that are chafed,
dr~ed out or
cracked.
lnspect heat shield and replace if corroded.
Inspect rubber buffers and
hers on fuel tank, support
straps and on underside of body. Replace rubber parts that
are hardened or damaged.
- After finishing repairs but before starting engine, fill fuel tank
with at least
5 liters (1.5 gallons) of fuel.
CAUTlOI+
The fuelpump will be damaged if run without fuel.
* If the filler neck has been removed from the body, be
sure to reattach the
neck grounding screw (where ap-
plicable). Check electrical resistance between the
ground tab and wheel
hub. The resistance should be
no
hiaher than 0.6f2

tion before removing.
- Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following:

Some thermostats have a direction arrow or vent hole near
the edge. Install the thermostat so that either the arrow or
hole are at the top.
Fill system with coolant as described in Coolant, draining
and filling (6-cylinder models).
