Overview

This is a dedicated timing and camshaft locking tool set engineered specifically for BMW N47 and N47S diesel engines (2.0D). If you service BMW 1-Series, 3-Series, 5-Series, or X3 models with these powerplants, this kit eliminates guesswork during critical camshaft and crankshaft alignment procedures. The set includes all necessary components to lock the injection pump, camshaft, and crankshaft in their correct positions—essential for timing chain maintenance, gasket replacement, or any work requiring engine timing verification. For shops handling multiple BMW diesel platforms, consider pairing this with timing tool sets for other BMW engine families or locking tools for N42/N46 variants to ensure comprehensive coverage.
