Its a step by step guide to replace timing belt and water pump on BMW 325e 1985 model years. I hope these pictures will help it all make sense. I took them as I was doing the job. Removal: The Fan & Clutch, the water pump pulley, the distributor cap & rotor and the drive belts. Remember, the 32mm nut opens CLOCKWISE as you look at the car. I used Channel-Locks and a strap wrench to hold the pulley still. I also used the strap wrench to hold the water pump pulley while I removed its 4 retaining bolts. Remove the 6 hex bolts from the crankshaft pulley,
