Sockets Socltets are used with a ratchet handle for speed and conve-
nience and can be combined with extensions and universal
joints (swivels) to reach fasteners more easily. The most
common socket drive sizes are
114 inch, 318 inch and 112 inch.
Sockets come in
6 point and 12 point styles. The 6 point offers
a better grip on tight nuts and bolts.
6 mm to 19 mm socltets
are the most needed sizes. Below is a list of typical bolt
diarn-
eters and the corresponding wrench sizes.

Spark plug socket
4 A 518" deep-well socket for sparlt plugs includes a rubber in-
sert to both protect the spark plug from damage and grip it for
easier removal.
Pliers
There are many types of pliers including snap-ring,
needle-
nose, adjustable-joint, slip-joint (Channel-lock@), and locking
(Vice-Grip@) most of which are used for holding irregular ob-
jects, bending, or crimping. Some have special applications.
Needlenose pliers are used for gripping small and poorly ac-
cessible objects, and are useful forwiring and other electrical
work. Locking pliers such as the Vise-Grip@ are useful be-
cause of their tight grip.
Snap-ring and circlip pliers with special tipped jaws are used
to remove and install snap-rings or circlips. Channel-lock@ or
water pump pliers have adjustable jaws that can be quicltly
changed to match the size of the object being held to give
greater leverage,

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.

Warnings and cautions
Obse~e the following warnings and cautions when worlting
on the cooling system.
WARNING -
. At normal operating temperature the cooling system is
pressurized. Allow the system to cool as long as possible
before opening (a minimum of one hour), then release the
cap slowly to allow safe release ofpressure.
a Releasing the coolant system pressure lowers the cool-
ant boilingpoint and the coolant may boil suddenly. Use
1 heavy and wear eye and face protection to
guard against scalding.
Use extreme care when draining and disposing of en-
gine coolant. Coolant is poisonous and lethal to hu-
mans andpets. Pets are attracted to coolant because
of its sweet smell and taste. Seek medical attention im-
mediately if coolant is ingested.
CAUTIOG
Avoid adding cold water to the coolant while the engine is
hot or overheated. If it is necessary to add coolant to a
hol
system, do so only with the engine running and coolanl
pump turning.
To avoid excess silicate gel precipitation in the cooling
system and loss of cooling capacity, use BMW coolant
or equivalent low silicate antifreeze.
a If oil enters the cooling system, the radiator, expansion
tank and heating circuit must be flushed with cleaning
agent. BMW recommends removal of the radiator and
expansion
tank to flush.
When
worlcing on the cooling system, cover the alter-
nator to protect it against coolant drips.
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery dis-
connection cautions given in
001 General Warnings
and Cautions.
Begin the diagnosis of cooling system problems with a thor-
ough visual inspection.
If no visual faults are found, it is rec-
ommend that the engine control module (ECM) fault memory
be checked for stored diagnostic trouble codes
(DTCs) using
BMW scan tool
DlSplus or equivalent.

I Radiator and Cooling System
Common cooling system faults can be grouped into one of 4
categories:
Cooling system
lealts
Poor coolant circulation
Radiator cooling fan faults
Electrical/electronic faults
Cooling system inspection
- Check that coolant pump drive belt tensioner is functioning
properly and that belt tension is correct. Belt tensioner sys-
tems for the different models are shown in
020 Maintenance.
- Check condition of coolant pump drive belt.
- Checlc coolant hoses for cracks or softness. Checlc clamps
for looseness. Check coolant level and check for evidence of
coolant
lealts from engine.
- Check that radiator fins are not blocked with dirt or debris.
Clean radiator using low-pressure water or compressed air.
Blow outward, from engine side out.
- To check coolant pump:
Remove mechanical cooling fan. See Mechanical
(vis.
cous clutch) cooling fan, removing and installing.
Remove drive belt from coolant pump pulley. See
020
Maintenance.
Firmly grasp opposite sides of pulley and check for play in
all directions.
Spin pulley and check that shaft runs smoothly without
play.
NOTE-
The coolant provides lubrication for the pump shaft, so an oc-
casional drop of coolant
lealing from the pump is acceptable.
If coolant drips steadily from the vent hole, replace the pump.
- At normal engine operating temperature, cooling system is
pressurized. This raises boiling point of coolant.
Leaks may
prevent system from becoming pressurized. If visual evi-
dence is inconclusive, pressure test cooling system as de-
scribed later to help pinpoint hard-to-find leaks.
- If cooling system is full of coolant and holds pressure:
- Use an appropriate scan tool to interrogate engine control
module (ECM) for radiator fan or DME control circuit faults.
Checlc for loose or worn drive belt.
0 Test for failed thermostat or coolant pump impeller. Some
pumps may be fitted with plastic impellers.

Radiator and Cooling System
Cooling system, bleeding
Trapped air in the cooling system can prevent proper coolant
circulation and overheating. Wheneverthe coolant is drained
and filled, bleed the cooling system to remove trapped air.
4 Loosen bleed screw (arrow) on radiator expansion tank.
- Set temperature controls in passenger compartment to full
warm, set blower to low setting and turn ignition to
ON posi-
tion (do not start engine).
CAUTIOIG
On late model cars with latent heat pump, do not turn ignition
to ON position.
- Slowly add coolanUdistilled water mixture to expansion tank
until it spills from bleed screw. When coolant spilling from
bleed screws is free of air bubbles, tighten screw and replace
cap on expansion tank.
Run engine until it reaches operating temperature,
- After engine has cooled, recheck coolant level.
Top up so that coolant level indicator is at MAX.
- If trapped air cannot be bled manually, pressure-bleed sys-
tem using cooling system pressure tester.
CA UTlON--
Always use genuine BMW coolant or its equivalent to avoid
the formation of harmful, clogging deposits
in the cooling sys-
tem.
Tightening torque
Radiator bleed screw to radiator 2.5 Nm (22 in-lb)
Mechanical (viscous clutch) cooling fan,
removing and installing
The procedure given here describes the removal of the me-
chanical fan and fan shroud. It is possible to remove the fan
without the shroud.
< Working at top of fan shroud:
Remove expansion tank bleed screw (arrow) and expan-
sion tank locking tabs.
Push top of expansion
tank toward engine and lift to free
from lower mounts.
- Remove two expansion rivets in upper corners of fan shroud.
Unclip expansion tank bleed hose located under shroud.
