In this video, we replace the cam belt, water pump, thermostat, aux belts, spark plugs, gaskets, filters, oil and coolant on my recently acquired 1990 BMW E30 316i Coupe with the M40B16 four-cylinder engine.
The 1.6 engine had 103000 miles on it and the timing belt hadn’t been changed for 18 years prior, so it was well overdue!
I’ve got long-term plans for this E30 but for now, I want to ensure the car is a going concern and old M40 engine keeps it running as a rolling restoration project.
This how-to guide should also apply to 318i E30s and also BMW E36 models with the M40 engine too!
