This group covers cylinder head and valvetrain service and
repair. Some of the repair procedures described here require
that the cylinder head first be removed as described in
113
Cylinder Head Removal and Installation.
NOTE- For timing chain and
VANOS repair information, see 117
Camshaft Timing Chain.
If it is
determined that the cylinder head will require signif-
icant reconditioning work, a remanufactured cylinder head
may be a good alternative. Remanufactured cylinder
heads are available from an authorized
BMW dealer.
The information given in this repair group is organized ac-
cording to engine code. For engine application information,
see
I00 Engine-General.
For specific repair procedures, refer to the appropriate repair
group:

Special Tools
Special BMW tools are required for most cylinder head ser-
vice described in this repair group. Many of these tools are ex-
pensive and only available through an authorized
BMW
dealer. If the special tools are not available, have the cylinder
head removed and disassembled by an authorized BMW
dealer. Be sure to read each procedure thoroughly before
starting a job to determine which special tools and equipment
will be necessary.
Most of the repairs to a cylinder head require precision
rna-
chine work to specific tolerances. This type of work should be
performed by an authorized BMW repairfacility or an ASE
certified machinist.

CYLINDER HEAD
This section provides the specifications and special recondi-
tioning information necessary to repair the cylinder heads
covered by this manual.
The disassembled cylinder head should be inspected for
warpage and cracks. Check the valve guides and valve seats
for wear before machining a warped head. Always decarbon-
ize and clean the head before inspecting it.
Visually inspect the cylinder head for craclts.
If a cracked cyl-
inder head is suspected and no
craclts are detected through
the visual Inspection, have the head further tested for cracks
by an authorized BMW dealer or an ASE certified machinist.
A cracked cylinder head must be replaced.
NOJE-
When disassembling and inspecting the cylinder head, be
sure to
checlc the camshaft carrier bearing surfaces using a
straight edge for
warpage, and check the lifter bores for wear.
A high-quality straight edge can be used to
checlc for
warpage. A warpage of 0.05 mm (0.002 in.) is acceptable
without machining. A warped cylinder head can be machined
provided no more than 0.3
mm (0.012 in.) of material is re-
moved.
If further machining is required, the head should be
replaced. Removing more than this amount will reduce the
size of the combustion chamber and adversely affect engine
performance. A 0.3 mm
thicker head gasket for machined
heads is available from an authorized BMW parts depart-
ment.

teners from inside to outside.

CAMSHAFT AND LIFTER REMOVAL
AND ~NSTALLATION
The camshafts can be removed with the cylinder heads
mounted on the engine (in the car).
On 6-cylinder engines there are two different procedures giv-
en, depending on whether the engine is equipped with single
VANOS (M52 engine) or double VANOS
(M52TU or M54 en-
gine).
For V-8 engines, camshaft removal and installation proce-
dures are
only included for the non-VANOS (M62) engine.
Camshaft removal and installation for the
VANOS eq;ipped
V-8 (M62TU) is not covered in this manual.
Special BMW service tools should always be used to remove
and install the camshafts. Removal of the camshafts without
the special tools can result in cylinder head damage and cam-
shaft breakage.
