2007 BMW 530xi Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2007 BMW 530xi applies to a sedan and a wagon built on the same all-wheel-drive platform, both with the 3.0L inline-six — double overhead cams, naturally aspirated, gasoline — and both listed in one trim. A technician moving between the two bodies uses the same engine specifications, the same transfer case procedures and the same suspension geometry. What changes is the rear of the car, and the manual's body and electrical sections split accordingly.

It documents the six-cylinder and its fuel, ignition and cooling systems with test values; the driveline, including the front axle and transfer case, with service data; the brakes, suspension and steering with specifications; and the climate and body electrics with wiring diagrams for each of the two bodies. Every procedure is written for the equipment this single-trim car carries.
