The cylinder head gasket is a multi-layer steel
gasket with a rubber coating. This type of gas-
ket has previously been used on other engines.
The B44 head gasket has a 6 mm hole in a flap
on the outlet side of the cylinder head gasket.
The cylinder head bolts for the N62 engine are
M10x160 necked-down “stretch” bolts.

The lower part of the timing chain housing is
bolted to the cylinder head using two M8x45
bolts.
Camshafts
The camshafts are made from chilled cast iron
and are hollowed to reduce weight. The cam-
shafts are weighted with counterbalances for
equalizing imbalances in the valve gear.
1. Camshaft sensor wheels (sintered metal)
2. Thrust bearing area with oil ducts for the
VANOS units

N62 Engine
Bi-VANOS (Variable Camshaft Adjustment)
The N62 features compact infinitely variable vane-type VANOS for the intake and exhaust
camshafts. The VANOS unit is easy to remove and install. The VANOS unit is designed as
an integral component of the chain drive and is secured to the respective camshaft with a
central bolt. The camshaft adjustment rate is 60º (as compared with the crankshaft).
The VANOS unit gear teeth are visibly different to match the new toothed chain. The
VANOS unit for the cylinders 1-4 exhaust shaft has mounting provisions for the vacuum
pump drive. A spring plate is fitted between the VANOS unit and the vacuum pump drive
to reduce wear (3). The V VA

for intake and exhaust installa-
tion positions.
The VANOS units are supplied with oil via ports in the camshafts. The oil ports are located
on the left and right of the thrust bearing. Depending on the individual VANOS adjustment
direction, the VANOS is supplied with oil via either the rear oil ports (1 & 2) or the front oil
ports (3 & 4). The oil moves through the camshaft to the VANOS units.

Oil Filter
The canister type oil filter (3) is located under the
engine by the oil sump. The support for the oil
filter is integrated in the rear oil pump cover.
The oil filter housing (2 with o-ring) is threaded
into the rear of the oil pump cover through an
opening in the oil sump.

The filter element support dome contains an over pressure relief valve. If the filter element
is blocked, this valve bypasses unfiltered engine oil around the element to the supply lubri-
cation to the engine.
Pressure Control
The oil pressure control valve in the oil pump has two functions:
1. Deactivates stage two oil pump circuit above 2 bar. Stage two is only active in the
lower speed range. This is to ensure that there is always sufficient oil pressure for
the VANOS units even at high oil temperatures and low speeds. The oil pump power
consumption is reduced by deactivating stage two.
2. Monitoring the required oil pressure for the engine. The piston in the control valve is
moved by a spring against the engine control pressure which is returning from the
engine. This means that precise monitoring of the actual engine oil pressure is pos-
sible.
