About the E61 5 Series

The E61 is the Touring (estate) of the fifth-generation 5 Series, made from 2003 to 2010. It brought iDrive, a head-up display, active steering and night vision to the 5 Series, and was the first 5 Series with a turbocharged petrol engine. Its M5 was the only M5 with a V10 (the S85).

What these manuals cover

  • Four-cylinder: the 520i (N43) and the 520d (M47T2, N47).
  • Six-cylinder petrol: the 523i, 525i and 530i (M54, N52, N53), with all-wheel-drive xi versions, and the twin-turbo 535xi (N54).
  • Six-cylinder diesel: the 525d, 530d and 535d (M57), including the xd.
  • V8: the 545i and 550i (N62).
  • The M5 (S85 V10).

Tip: these are BMW factory manuals, listed by model, engine and body rather than by year. The code in brackets is the engine (M54, N52 and so on), and the last word is the body: SAL saloon, TOUR Touring (estate), COUPE, CONVER convertible, COMP Compact (hatchback), ROADST roadster, OFFRD for the X models. The E60 manuals cover the same engines.
