2016 BMW M2 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2016 BMW M2 covers a two-door coupe with one engine listed for it: a turbocharged 3.0L inline-six with double overhead camshafts, on gasoline, in a single trim. A car built for hard use is also a car that gets serviced hard, and the manual is written accordingly, with the fastener specifications, the reassembly sequences and the measured limits stated at the point of work rather than left to a technician's judgment.

Engines covered

• 3.0L inline-six — DOHC, turbocharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

• 2-door coupe

Trims covered

• Base

Known issues on the 2016 M2. One recall is on the federal record for this model year, and it comes out of a repair rather than a part. During earlier rear differential work the rear sub-frame bolts may have been reused instead of replaced, and reused bolts can loosen, which changes the way the car handles and steers. All five owner complaints recorded for the year concern exterior lighting. Rear sub-frame and differential removal, the tightening specifications and single-use fastener rules that apply, and the lighting circuits are all documented in this manual.
