Bulletin Number

Woodcliff Lake, NJ
November 1992
Product Engineering

This Service Information bulletin supersedes Service Information bulletin number 36 02 91 (3307) dated November 1991, which should be removed from your S.I. binder and discarded.

SUBJECT:
Approved Tire Sizes and Labels

MODELS:
E36

Situation:
All E36 vehicles produced prior to 9/91 have a tire information label on the B pillar that includes the tire size 225/55 R15 92V as an approved tire size.

Approval of this tire size has been withdrawn for all 92 model year E36s.

This tire size is approved for the 1993 model year as an optional size, as the changes necessary to allow adequate tire clearance have been incorporated into production with the '93 model year.

Correction:





Whenever a 325i/iA (E36) produced prior to 9/91 is in your workshop for service, check the tire information label on the B pillar. The label should have a "b" suffix after the label number.





If the old label is present, remove completely and replace with the new label. Affix a label (part number 01 90 9 786 150) in the appropriate area on page 112 of the Owner's Manual, and label (part number 01 90 9 786 151) in the appropriate area on page 21 of the Owner's Manual.





Affix label to page 112 of E36 Owner's Manual.





Affix label to page 21 of E36 Owner's Manual.

Label sets may be obtained (free of charge) from Service Engineering at 201-573-2091 under order no. SD 91-019.
