Winston's BMW repair site for the mechanically challenged
Word of warning: I am not a certified or licensed mechanic and can not guarantee the accuracy of this information. Like any other information on the internet, you should check elsewhere to make sure information is correct. Some information on this site is merely my opinion and may differ from what is recommended by BMW and other sources of information. Use your good judgement and research your problem. A good reference book is the Robert Bentley 5-series book. Remember if you are severly mechanically challenged you can pay someone who knows how to do this rather than deciding you can't do it when its completely apart. Believe me mechanics hate it when you bring in a box of parts and ask them to assemble it for you.
I have a lot of photos on these pages so be patient when downloading with a 28.8 connection. You may not be able to download these pages with dial-up due to your browser timing out. If pictures are half loaded try reloading once. If the page looks odd it may be because your monitor is too small. I made these pages on a 21 inch monitor so pages will be squeezed on a 17 inch or smaller.
If you see the repair procedure you want but it goes to another car, read it anyway. Many of the repairs on BMW's are some what similar in procedure on another model. Research the tools you need before doing the job. Having the right tools and knowledge can save an incredible amount of time, frustration, cussing, loss of sanity, spousal or vehicle abuse, and bodily injuries.
