E28 520 gearbox



Gentlemen
    I'm assuming this is a 5 speed.  If so it's probably the same as on the
USA 1.8 litre 320i and later 318i. Shop Manuals are available, but the
procedures require special bearing pullers as the gearbox is "keyed"
together by the input shaft bearing.
  Do not try pressing this apart, the housing will crack and fail before
the bearings release.  I've had to supply many tranny cases to shops that
have tried this.
