Some
of
the

cal¡
for

.
This,
however,
does
not

automatically
mean
that
thejob
is
too
complicated
or
out
of

.

Many
of
the
BMW
special
tools
mentioned
in
this
manual
are
simplythe
best
thing
to
use
to
do
thejob
correctly
.
In
these
cas-

es,
the
tool
is
identified
with
a
BMW
part
number
.
See
your
au-

thorized

for
information
on
how

to
order
special

.

There
are
some
jobs
for
which
expensive
special
tools
are

essential,
and
not
a
cost-effective

for
one-time
repair

by
the

such
repairs

for
the
benefit
of
these

it
indicates
that

has
occurred
.
Faults

The

theen-

will
soon
discharge
it
altogether

Instead,turn
off

This
will
reduce

will
