2010 BMW X1 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2010 BMW X1 covers the first year of the small sport utility, a four-door body offered in xDrive2.5i, xDrive28i and xDrive28i Top Line form. Two naturally aspirated gasoline inline-sixes are listed, a 2.5L and a 3.0L of 183 cubic inches, both with double overhead camshafts, so the first step in any engine job is confirming which of the two is fitted before reading a clearance or a torque value.

Known issues on the 2010 X1. The manual does the ordinary work of a service reference: engine repair and diagnostics for both sixes, transmission and all-wheel-drive transfer case procedures, propeller shaft and axle service, suspension and steering geometry, brake hydraulics and stability control testing, climate control, and the wiring diagrams and fault-tracing routines for this body's electrical systems.
