CAMSHAFT AND LIFTER REMOVAL
AND ~NSTALLATION
The camshafts can be removed with the cylinder heads
mounted on the engine (in the car).
On 6-cylinder engines there are two different procedures giv-
en, depending on whether the engine is equipped with single
VANOS (M52 engine) or double VANOS
(M52TU or M54 en-
gine).
For V-8 engines, camshaft removal and installation proce-
dures are
only included for the non-VANOS (M62) engine.
Camshaft removal and installation for the
VANOS eq;ipped
V-8 (M62TU) is not covered in this manual.
Special BMW service tools should always be used to remove
and install the camshafts. Removal of the camshafts without
the special tools can result in cylinder head damage and cam-
shaft breakage.
