4 While maintaining tension on timing chain, rotate crankshaft
at vibration dampener from
30" before TDC in direction of ro-
tation (clockwise) until number
1 cylinder is at TDC position
with line between the OIT mark (arrow) on front pulley
aligned with boss on lower timing chain cover.
4 Secure crankshaft in TDC position with BMW special tool
11 2 300 (arrow).
Slide impulse wheel on intake camshaft, aligning boss with
raised portion on camshaft (arrow).
Fit thrust spacer
(A) to intalte camshaft and tighten down with
threaded locating studs (arrows). Place longer threaded por-
tion of studs into camshaft.

NOTE-
Mark direction of belt rotation if reusing belt.
- Remove vibration damper mounting bolts and remove vibra-
tion damper and pulley from hub.
NOTE- The M52
6-cylinder engine uses a 2-piece vibration damper
and hub assembly.
4 Install crankshaft holder (BMW special tools 11 2 150
and11 2410).
NOTE
-
Be careful while aligning locator pin hole in special tool 11 2
410 with vibration damper locatorpin.
- While counterholding crankshaft, loosen and remove crank-
shaft center bolt.
CAUTION-
Do not use flywheel locking tool to hold crankshaft stationary
to loosen or tighten crankshaft hub center bolt Use only the
special tools specified, or equivalent hub holding tool.
NOTE- The cranlshaft hub center bolt is torqued to 4
10 Nm
(300
ft-16).
- Remove damper hub and special tools.
4 Install cap (BMW special tool 11 2 383) on end of cranltshaft.
4 Install seal guide (BMW special tool 11 2 385) over end of
crankshaft. Be sure to align tool with keyway on crankshaft
(arrow).

to recheck engine timing. Remove locking tools if no faults
are found.
- Remove BMW special tool 11 3 390 (dummy tensioner) from
side of cyiinder head.
- Install primary chain tensionerso that cutout in tensioner pis-
ton engages chain rail.

- installation of remaining parts is reverse of removal, noting
the following:
When installing thermostat, make sure arrow or vent hole
faces up, if applicable.
Refill cooling system as described in
170 Radiator and
Cooling System.
Fill engine with oil and install new
oil filter as described in

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.

Clutch
Use crankshaft pulley bolt to rotate engine in direction of ro-
tation until a full pulse tooth
(arrow) is centered in pulse sen-
sor opening.
Measure depth from pulse sensor mounting surface on trans-
mission to top of tooth.
Q Measure length (A) of pulse sensor from mounting surface to
end.
- Subtract length of pulse sensor (A) from distance to pulse
tooth from mounting area on transmission. This resulting
measurement is the pulse sensor air gap. Use shims avail-
able from
BMW to adjust air gap to specification.
Pulse air sensor gap
End of sensor to flywheel teeth 0.55 i-0.2 rnrn
(0.0217 i0.0079 in)

replacing
- Remove clutch as described earlier.
4 Remove pilot bearing from end of crankshaft using BMW
special tool 11 2 340 or equivalent puller.
