6 Series
The BMW 6 Series builds on BMW's sporty heritage with aggressive lines and an incredible motor to back the design up. Available in coupe and convertible trims with a standard 4.8 liter engine producing 360 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque, the 6-series is a popular choice that exceeds expectations.

wheel bearing on 645ci

I like to replace my rear wheel bearings on my 645ci, can anybody tell me the torque values for the bolts that are involved in doing this repair. Do I have to drop the exhaust in order to remove the drive shaft or is there enough room to slide the shaft back.

Hi ! the link has been changed, so I don't have it maybe others do?? In the mean time you can buy the discs very cheaply on Ebay......Then you have a complete record including parts manual EPA and the wiring diagrams WDS on your own laptop......
