5 Series E39 M5 (S62) SAL
Removal
Removal of cylinder head is described separately from installation.
Note:
Cylinder head bolts on cylinder 8 are only accessible after signal
rings have been removed.
Caution!
Risk of damage to pulse generators (2).
Remove pulse generator (2) of exhaust and inlet camshafts
or release screws (1) with a long socket.
Grip camshaft at hexagon head and release banjo bolt (1).
Remove signal rings.
When the engine is switched off, VANOS moves the camshafts to
a position which is advantageous to engine starting.
Caution!
Before the VANOS adjustment unit is removed, the camshafts
on cylinder bank 5 to 8 must be rotated back to their initial
position.
