Replace screws 120 Nm

All others Replace screws 105 Nm

Automatic transmission flywheel to crankshaft

They don't say what the rear main housing bolts are. Let us know if you need anything else.

I checked. All of them are for v8s except the m44 which is a 4 cylinder It's on Wikipedia and many other sites. I am very familiar with these numbers too, that's why i asked. The 6-cylinder inline are usually the m54 abd m52.

Hmm, Alldata must have it wrong, sorry.

The 2001 BMW 330Ci does not come with the S62 or M62 V8 engines. Instead, it is equipped with the M54 inline-six engine.
