General 
0 GENERAL, MAINTENANCE covers general vehicle infor- 
mation 
(010 General)  as well  as the recommended  mainte- 
nance schedules  and service procedures to  perform BMW 
scheduled maintenance 
work (020 Maintenance). 
The next seven sections 
(1 through 7) are repair  based and 
organized  by three digit repair  groups. Most major  sections 
begin with  a GENERAL repair  group, 
e.g. 100 Engine-Gen- 
eral. These "00 (double zero)  groups contain descriptive the- 
ory  of operation and system troubleshooting  information. The 
remainder  of the  repair groups within  a section contain the 
service and repair information. The last  two sections contain 
detailed electrical wiring schematics and  OBD 
II scan tool and 
diagnostic  information. 
Warnings,  cautions and notes 
Throughout this manual  are many  passages  with the head- 
ings  WARNING,  CAUTION, or NOTE.  These very important 
headings have different meanings. 
WARNING- 
The  text under  this heading  warns of unsafe  practices  that 
are  very 
likely to cause  injury, either by direct  threat  to the  per- 
son(~)  performing  the work 
orby increasedrisl( of accident  or 
mechanical  failure while 
drivinq. 
CAUTION- 
A CAUTION calls attention  to importantprecautions  to be ob- 
senfed during  the repair  work that will help prevent acciden- 
tally  damaging the  car or its parts. 
NOTE- 
A NOTE  contains  helpful information,  tips that will help  in do- 
ing  a betterjob  and completing  it more  easily. 
Please  read every WARNING, CAUTION,  AND NOTE  in 
001 
General  Warnings  and Cautions  and as they appear  in re- 
pair procedures. They are very  important. Read them before 
you  begin  any maintenance  or repair job.

Crankshaftspeedsensor 
Crankshaft speed sensor, replacing (M52, M52 TU and 
M54 engines) 
4 Crankshaft speed sensor  for 6-cylinder engine is mounted in 
the left rear side  of the cylinder  block below the starter  (ar- 
row).  The sensor reads a toothed pulse wheel mounted to 
the end  of the crankshaft. 
- if the  Engine Control Module (ECM)  does not receive a signal 
from  the crankshaft speed  sensor during cranking,  the en- 
gine will not start.

NOTE- 
If the  crankshaft  speed sensor  pulse wheel  is damaged, the 
engine  will have  to be  disassembled down  to the  crankshaft 
to 
reolace the  wheel. 
- Make  certain ignition has been turned  off. 
- Raise car and support  in a safe manner. 
WARNING - 
Make sure  the car  is stable  and well supported  at all times. 
Use  a professional  automotive lift orjacltstands  designed for 
the  ouroose. 
A floor iaclc is not  adequate support. 
- Remove  under engine splash guard 
4 Working underneath starter: 
Cut  off wire tie  securing crankshaft speed  sensor harness 
connector  (arrow) to sensor. 
* Disconnect harness connector. 
4 Remove sensor  mounting fastener (arrow) and remove  sen- 
sor  from  cylinder  block. 
- Installation  is reverse  of removal, noting  the following: 
Use a new O-ring  when installing  sensor. 
Be sure wiring  is routed in  same orientation. 
Secure sensor using new  wire ties. 
Use  scan  tool to  read  out and clear ECM  fault memory.

Fuel Tank and Fuel pump1 
The 312-way  valve is also activated  briefly if an engine misfire 
is detected.  This provides full fuel  flow through  the fuel rail  to 
determine  if the  misfire was caused by a  lean fuel condition. 
The  valve is monitored by  the ECM  forfaults. 
- Using BMW or compatible scan  tool, read out fault  memory. 
See 
OBD On-Board Diagnostics. 
- Turn  off ignition. 
- Raise car  and support  safely. 
CA UTIOW 
Male sure the car  is stable  and well suppodedat all times. 
Use  a professional  automotive lift 
orjack stands designed for 
the  purpose. 
A floor jack is not  adequate  support. 
- Worlting under car beneath  driver's seat, remove protective 
panel  from fuel filter  and 312-way  valve. 
- Clamp off fuel  lines  at 312-way  valve. 
4 To remove  312-way  valve (V-8 model shown): 
Disconnect electrical  harness connector 
(A) from  valve. 
Remove vacuum  hose 
(B) from fuel pressure  regulator. 
* Remove hose clamps  (arrows) and disconnect fuel lines. 
Remove 
M6 mounting  nuts and lower  312-way valve. 
WARNING- 
Fuel will be spilled.  Use shop rags  to capture fuelas fuellines 
are  disconnected.  Do not 
smoke or work  near heaters  or oth- 
er  fire hazards. 
- Installation is reverse  of removal.  Use new hose clamps 
NOTE- 
Install protective  cover and seals correctly  to keep moisture 
and  road  dirt out of underbody  fuel system  components.

I Radiator and Cooling System 
Combustion chamber leak test 
- If you suspect  that combustion  chamber  pressure  is leaking 
into  the cooling  system  past the cylinder  head gasket, use  an 
exhaust  gas analyzer  to test  the vapors  rising from  the cool- 
ant  at the  expansion  tank. 
CAUTIO& 
Use an extension tube above the reservoir neclc to main- 
tain  distance between  the top  of the coolant  and the gas 
analyzer 
nozzle. The  gas  analyzer  is easily damaged  if it  is 
allowed  to inhale liquid  coolant. 
* While running engine  to checlc for causes  of overheat- 
ing, observe coolant  temperature carefully in order to 
avoid  engine damage. 
Thermostat 
If the engine overheats  or runs  too cool and  no other  cooling 
system tests indicate  trouble, the thermostat may be faulty.

WARNING - 
Allow the cooling system  to cool before opening or draining 
the cooling system. 
- Raise front  of car  and  support  safely. 
WARNING - 
Make sure the car is stable and well supported  at all  times.

OBD-6 
On-Board Diagnostics 
Fuel system monitoring.  This monitor looks at the fuel 
delivery  needed (long 
/short term fuel trim)  for proper engine 
operation  based on programmed  data. If too much or not 
enough  fuel is delivered over  a predetermined  time, a DTC is 
set  and  the MIL  illuminates. 
Fuel trim  refers to adiustments  to base fuel schedule. 
Lono- ., term  fuel trim refers to gradual adjustments  to the fuel 
calibration adjustment as compared  to short term  fuel trim. 
Long  term fuel trim adjustments compensate  for gradual 
changes  that occur over time. 
Fuel  system monitoring monitors the calculated injection time 
(ti)  in relation  to enginespeed,  load and precatalyticconverter 
oxygen 
sensor(s) signals. 
Using this data,  the system optimizes  fuel delivery for  all 
engine operating conditions. 
Evaporative  system monitoring.  This monitor checks  the 
the  fuel storage  system and related fuel lines for leaks.  It can 
detect very small leaks anywhere  in the  system. 
A leak detection  unit (LDP  or DMTL) is  used to pressurize  the 
evaporative  control system  on a continuous basis (as  the 
drive cycle allows)  and to 
check system integrity. 
Drive  cycle 
The OED II drive cycle  is an  important concept  in 
understanding  OBD 
II requirements. The purpose of the  drive 
cycle  is to  run  ail of the  emission-related on-board diagnostics 
over a broad  range of driving conditions. 
A drive cycle is considered complete when  all of the 
diagnostic monitors have  run their tests without interruption. 
~ora drive cycle to  be initiated,  the vehicle must  be started 
cold  and brought  up to 
1 60°F and  at least  40°F  above its 
original starting temperature. 
Readiness codes 
Inspection/maintenance (I/M) readiness  codes are mandated 
as  part  of OBD 
II. The  readiness  code is stored aftercomplete 
diagnostic monitoring  of specified components  and systems 
is  carried  out. The  readiness  code function was designed  to 
prevent  manipulating  an 
I/M emission test procedure  by 
clearing  faults codes or disconnecting  the ECM  or battery.
