BMW 3- & 5-Series Service and Repair Manual

 Introduction to the BMW 3- and 5-Series

The E30 3-Series range first became available in the UK in March 1983, and continued in production until April 1991, when the revised E36 3-Series range (not covered by this manual) was introduced. Convertible and Touring (Estate) models were introduced for 1988, and these models have continued in E30 form to date. The E28 5-Series models were introduced in October 1981, and were superseded in June 1988 by the revised E34 5-Series range, Touring versions of which became available from March 1992. Throughout this manual, E28 models are also referred to as “oldshape”,

while E34 models are designated“new-shape”. The models covered by this manual are equipped with single overhead cam in-line four- and six-cylinder engines. Early 316 and 518 models are fitted with carburettors, but all other models are fitted with fuel injection systems. Transmissions are a five-speed manual, or three- or four-speed automatic.

The transmission is mounted to the back of the engine, and power is transmitted to the fully-independent rear axle through a twopiece propeller shaft. The final drive unit is bolted solidly to a frame crossmember, and drives the rear wheels through driveshafts equipped with inner and outer constant velocity joints.

The front suspension is of MacPherson strut type, with the coil spring/shock absorber unit making up the upper suspension link. The rear suspension is made up of coil springover-
shock absorber struts, or coil springsand conventional shock absorbers,depending on model.
The brakes are disc type at the front, with either drums or discs at the rear, depending on model. Servo assistance is standard on all models. Some later models are equipped with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). All models are manufactured to fine limits, and live up to the BMW reputation of quality workmanship. Although many of the models covered by this manual appear complex at first sight, they should present no problems to the home mechanic.

  in the previous sections we had discuss : Classification of Internal Combustion Engines and Engine Components (Course) Internal Combustion Engines Components 2 (Course)   In This  section we will discuss : -Describe and explain the operation of a typical cooling system for an industrial ICE. -Describe and explain the operation of a typical lubrication system for an industrial ICE. SECTION 3 Objective 7 Describe and explain the operation of a typical cooling system for an industrial ICE. ENGINE COOLING Small internal combustion engines are often air-cooled. Each cylinder or motor block is equipped with many thin fins creating an extensive cooling surface. This has the advantages of being simple and cheap, but the disadvantage of lack of control of the engine temperature because the cooling efficiency depends on the weather conditions. For high compression diesel engines, the combustion temperature can exceed 2000°C, and only 30 - 35% of the he...

all about gears (kinds ,applications,.....)

Gears Gears are Power transmission elements. It is the Gears that decides the torque, speed and direction of rotation of all the driven machine elements. Broadly speaking, Gear types may be grouped into five major categories. They are Spur, Helical, Bevel, Hypoid, and Worm. A lot of intricacies are there in the different types of gears. Actually The choice of gear type is not a very easy process. It is dependent on a number of considerations. Factors that go into it are physical space and shaft arrangement, gear ratio, load, accuracy and quality level. Types of Gears Types of Gears A number of gears are manufactured using different materials and with different performance specifications depending on the industrial application. These gears are available in a range of capacities, sizes and speed ratios, but the main function is to convert the input of a prime mover into an output with high ...

in the previous section we had discuss : Classification of Internal Combustion Engines and Engine Components (Course)     that  we had discussed in : -Classification of Internal Combustion Engines -Internal Combustion Engine Components     lets begin our section which we will discuss : -Describe individual pump, distributor, and common rail fuel injection systems for a diesel engine. -Explain the purpose and describe the operation of superchargers and turbochargers - Describe the cooling systems, function operation, inspection, and service.       SECTION 2 Objective 3 Describe individual pump, distributor, and common rail fuel injection systems for a diesel engine. THE FUEL INJECTOR The diesel engine, unlike some gasoline engines, does not use a carburetor to mix the fuel and air nor does it use a spark to ignite the fuel-air mixture. Instead, the diesel uses an injection system to spray the fuel into the engine cylinder. The fuel...
