Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
NOTE-
BMW special tool 11 4 220 is an adjustable primary chain
tensioner and simulates the function of the hydraulic
tensioner.
- Check that elongated holes in primary sprocket are now cen-
tered to bolt holes in camshaft and chain is free of slack. If
not, reposition sprocket to chain and reinstall.
- lnstall secondary timing chain guide and secondary chain
tensioner. Tighten mounting bolts (tensioner remains locked
down for now using
BMW special tool 11 3 292).
- Install cylinder identification trigger plate to front of intake
camshaft with studs.
- Install spacer to front of intake camshaft.
- Install secondary chain sprockets and chain as an assembly
so that arrows on sprockets are pointing up. Center mounting
holes in sprockets to bolt holes in camshafts.
4 lnstall thrust washers and diaphragm spring to intake cam
sprocket.
I 2hm thrust washer I
- Install shim and torx bolts to exhaust camshaft. Tighten fin-
ger tight; do not torque down.
- Tighten intake sprocket nuts.
CA UTIOG
Hold the camshaft stationary (at hex on camshaft) when loos-
enino or tiahtenino sorocket mounting bolts and studs.
Tightening torque
Intake s~rocket nuts to studs 10 +l Nm (89 +9 in-lb)
- Turn crankshaft approx. 30" in direction of rotation to bring
engine to TDC. Lock crankshaft in TDC position with BMW
special tool
11 2 300.
CAUTION-
The camshafts andcranlshaft must be lockedin the TDCpo-
sition using BMW special tools 11 2 300 and 11 3 240. If the
camshafts and cranl(shaft are not at TDC, the valves can
contact the pistons.

I Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
Lubricate camshafts, camshaft carriers, bearing caps, hy-
draulic lifters, friction washers, splined shafts and spline hubs
with assembly lubricant before installation.
4 Check that two cylinder head aligning sleeves (arrows) are
correctly positioned in block and are not damaged.
- Apply elastic sealing compound Three Bond 1209 8 to cor-
ner joints on cylinder block to timing chain cover.
- Place new cylinder head gasket on cylinder block.
NOTE-
The word "OBEN" or "TOP printed on the gasket, should
face up. The cylinder headgaslet will fit correctly in only one
orientation.
- Set cylinder head in position, guiding primary chain through
cylinder head opening.
CAUJION-
Make sure the crankshaft, which had been rotated approxi-
mately 30" opposite the direction of engine rotation from
TDC, is still in thatposition before lowering the cylinder head
into position. All pistons must be out of TDC position to pre-
vent
valve/piston interference when the camshafts are in-
stalled.
- Lightly lubricate new cylinder head bolts and washers with
oil. Install bolts and washers finger tight. Install cylinder head
to lower timing chain cover bolts finger tight.
NOJE-
Cylinder head bolts should not be reused. They are
stretch-type bolts and must be replaced whenever loos-
ened.
* Aluminum cylinder blocls use different length cylinder
head bolts and torque values than cast iron blocks.
Check that all washers for
Nle head bolts are in place be-
fore installing the bolts. Some of the washers may be
staked to the cylinder head.
I 12 10 4 2 6 8 141 Tighten cylinder head bolts in correct sequence (1-14)
CA U TIOW-
The bolts should be tightened in three stages as listed below
The final stages require the use of a BMW special tool
11 2
110 or a suitable protractor to tighten the bolts to a specified
torque angle.

I Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
- Evaluate cylinder head as described in 116 Cylinder head
and valvetrain.
Left cylinder head, installing, M62 engine
- Clean cylinder head and block sealing surfaces of gasket
debris, making sure no debris drops into coolant or oil pas-
sages.
- Clean cylinder head bolt holes and check condition of
threads.
< Check cylinder head locator sleeves (arrows) for damage.
If the cylinder head has been machined, a special
0.3 mm
thicker gasket should be installed. The thicker gasket is avail-
able through an authorized
BMW dealer and should be
marked accordingly.
- Place new cylinder head gasket over locating sleeve on
block.
The word
"OBEN" or "TOP" (arrow) printed on the gasket,
must face up.
Set lefl side cylinder head in position on cylinder block while
pressing oil separator outward.
CAUJION-
Male sure the crankshaft, which had been rotated approxi-
mately
45" opposite the direction of engine rotation from
TDC, is still in thatposition before installing the cylinder head.
All pistons must be out of
TDCposition to prevent valvelpis-
ton contact.
- Install new cylinder head bolts and washers finger tight. Be
sure not to remove coating from new cylinder head bolts.

(M52 Engine)
Lubricate camshafts, camshaft carriers, bearing caps, hy-
draulic liflers, friction washers, splined shafts and spline hubs
with assembly lubricant before installation.
Make sure
the cranltshaft, which had been rotated approxi-
mately
30" opposite the direction of engine rotation from
TDC, is still in thatposition before lowering the
camshaffs into
position. All pistons must be out of TDC position to prevent
valve/piston interference when the camshalts are installed.
Before installing camshaft carriers, examine bearing bores
(arrows) on hydraulic lifter bores for signs of wear.

NOTE-
The camshaft bearing caps are coded with a letter and a
number. For example, "A
1" is the first exhaust camshaft
bearing cap
at the front of the engine, and "El "is the intake
camshaft bearing cap at the front of the engine.
-. -
The camshafts are stamped with a code letter - "E for the
intake side and
'X" for the exhaust side.
"E is for Einlap. (German for intake) and 'XA7s for Auspuff.
(German for exhaust).
- Repeat procedure for exhaust camshaft

I CAUTION-
Used liydraulic lifters must be reinstalled in original lifter
1 bores.
4 Remove lower camshaft bearing carriers from cylinder head.
CAUTION- Camshaft bearing carriers must be reinstalled in their original
locations
(E for intalce and A for exhaust).
NOTE- Do not allow hydraulic lifters to fall out of camshaft carriers.
Hydraulic lifters should be stored in an upright position.
