1988 BMW 325iX Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 1988 BMW 325iX covers a two-door coupe with a 2.5L inline-six of 152 cubic inches, single overhead camshaft, naturally aspirated and running on gasoline. A single Base trim keeps the specification fixed, which lets the manual go into detail on clearances, timing data, torque values and wiring rather than spending its space on variant charts. It documents the car as one machine, from the front of the engine to the rear of the harness.
