Exhaust System
The exhaust system is designed to be maintenance free, al-
though regular inspection is warranted due to the harsh oper-
ating conditions. Under normal conditions, the catalytic
converter does not require replacement unless it is damaged.
New fasteners, clamps, rubber mounts and gaskets should
be used when replacing exhaust components.
A liberal appli-
cation of penetrating oil to the exhaust system nuts and bolts
in advance may make removal easier.
WARNING -
The exhaust system and catalytic converter operate at
very high temperatures. Allow components to cool before
servicing. Wear protective clothing to prevent burns.
Do not use flammable chemicals near a hot
cataiyiic
converter.
Corroded exhaust system components crumble easily
and often have exposed sharp edges. To avoid injury,
wear eye protection and heavy gloves when working
Exhaust system, removing and installing
The removal and installation procedures given here are gen-
eral procedures for all models. The removal of the exhaust
system as a complete unit is recommended. Once the com-
plete system is removed from the car, individual pipes and
mufflers can be more easily replaced.
WARNING-
Exhaust gases are colorless, odorless, and very toxic. Run
the engine only in a well-ventilated area. Immediately repair
any
leaks in the exhaust system or structural damage to the
car body that
might allow exhaust gases to enter the passen-
ger compartment.
CAUTION-
Use care not to drag or bang oxygen sensors. Oxygen sen-
sors can be easily ruined.

I Automatic Transmission Automatic transmission fluid (ATF)
The E39 automatic transmission is filled with either Dexron Ill
ATF or Texaco 80728, a life time oil.
CA UTIOI\C
Use only the transmission fluid that is approved for use by
BMW All other fluids will cause non warrantable transmis-
I sion damage.
Mixing different types of transmission fluids will lead to
transmission failure.
NOTE-
The type of transmission lubricant used can be found on a
stickeron the transmission pan. Dexron
111ATF (blacksticker)
reads "ATF-Oil': Special life time oil (green sticker) reads
'Life-Time Oil': If in doubt, consult an authorized
BMW dealer
for alternate fluid use and current information regarding
transmission operating fluids.
ATF level, checking
Check ATF level if there is evidence of a leak, a complaint re-
lated to fluid level or afler transmission repairs.
The automatic transmission is not equipped with a dipstick.
Checking the ATF level requires that the transmission be at
operating temperature during the checking procedure.
NOTE-
Vehicle must be level throughout tests
- Drive vehicle to warm up ATF to operating temperature.
- Connect BMW diagnostic scan tool DiSplus, MoDiC, GTI or
equivalent to determine transmission oil temperature.
ATF level checking
Fluid temperature
30' - 50°C (85' - 120" F)
- With engine running, switch on air conditioning to increase
engine idle speed.
- Apply parking brake.
- While applying foot brake firmly move gear shift selector
lever through
all gear positions, pausing in each gear briefly.

[~us~ension, Steering and Brakes - General
This section of the manual covers front and rear suspension,
braking and steering systems, and contains wheel, tire and
wheel alignment information and specifications. Also covered
here are the integrated braking and suspension systems in-
cluding
antilock braking (ABS), traction control (ASCIDSC),
and electronic height control (EHC).
Vehicle ride height information is at the end of this repair
group. Alignment information is in
320 Steering and Wheel
Alignment.
Aluminum suspension components
In order to reduce vehicle weight, aluminum suspension com-
ponents are used in some models. A test with a magnet will
easily reveal the metal used. If working with aluminum com-
ponents, be sure to read and follow the cautions below.
CAUTION-
* Due to the chemical and corrosion characteristics of alumi-
num, do not bring into contact with battery acid.
Do not use wire brushes with brass or iron bristles.
Only use brushes with stainless steel bristles.
Do not expose to flying sparks from
grinding/cutting op-
erations.
Do not subject to steel welding splashes.
Do not expose to temperatures over
80°C (176"F),
even for short periods. Temperatures in painting facili-
ties are not a problem.
The E39 front suspension subframe is used as a rigid mount-
ing platform for the front suspension arms, stabilizer bar and
steering gear.
The suspension arms, known as the lower control arms and
the tension struts (thrust arms), are connected to the
sub-
frame through rubber bushings. The arms are connected to
the steering
knucltles in a double pivot configuration.
Each front strut assembly includes a tubular strut and a coil
spring. The upper strut mount includes a bearing. The lower
end of each strut housing is fitted to the steering knuckle. The
integral wheel bearing and hub are bolted to the steering
Iknucltle.
6-cylinder and V-8 models use different steering systems and
other front suspension components.
