Bmw 325es/87 Starter Removal

[marik]

Hi folks,

Could you tell me what's the best way to remove starter in 325ES/87. The bolts, which hold it on the transmission bell seem to be impossible to access. Any tricks there? Should I use a long extension and get to it from the transmission side? Also, I suppose there should be three bolts, but I was able to find only two (the top one, and next CCW if to look from transmission). ghead
I'd greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks!

How about the bolt on the forward side of the starter?

I meant, beside of that bolt should there be three or only two bolts, which hold the starter on the transmission?

This should help you out.
