Exhaust System
Oxygen sensors (precatalyst), replacing
(M52 TU and M54)
The precatalyst oxygen sensors are installed at the top of the
exhaust manifolds.
WARNING-
Allow components to cool before servicing.
- Using BMW scan tool DlSplus (Diagnostic Information Sys-
tem) or equivalent, read out and clear ECM fault codes.
Working at right side of engine above exhaust manifolds,
remove front or rear oxygen sensor harness connector
(arrows) from bracket, then separate plug.
NOTE-
In photo, secondary air pump has been removed for clarity.
Remove oxygen sensor using special oxygen sensor
removal socket.
Installation is reverse of removal
New sensor threads come coated with anti-seize paste.
If reusing a sensor, apply thin coat of anti-seize paste to
threads only. Do not contaminate tip of sensor with paste
or lubricants of any sort.
Install harness and connector in original location.
Tightening torque
- -.
Oxygen sensor to manifold 50 Nm (37 ft-lb)
Oxygen sensors (post-catalyst), replacing
(M52 TU and M54)
The post-catalyst oxygen sensors are installed at the rear of
the catalytic converters.
WARNING-
Allow components to cool before servicing
- Using BMW scan tool DlSplus or equivalent, read out and
clear ECM fault codes.
- Remove large cover from above fuel raillintake manifold.

This repair group covers general application information for
the clutch, manual and automatic transmissions, shift linkag-
es and driveshaft.
Drivetrain
I ZF manual transmission I
BMW E39 models are equipped with a longitudinal drivetrain.
The transmission is bolted directly to the rear of the engine.
A
driveshaft connects the output shaft of the transmission to the
rear final drive. Individual drive axles with integrated constant
velocity joints transfer rotational power from the final drive
unit to the rear wheels.
4 Due to different power characteristics and performance re-
quirements, various manual transmissions are used in mod-
els covered by this manual. Manual transmission
applications are given in the table below.
For manual transmission specifications or repair procedures,
refer to
230 Manual Transmission.
Manual transmission models use a single disc clutch with
dual-mass flywheel. For further information, see
210 Clutch.
The manual transmission metal ID plate is mounted on side of
transmission. Do not rely on numbers cast on transmission
case for identification.
