This manual covers the BMW 528i (E28 chassis), produced from 1981 to 1988. As a luxury executive sedan, the 528i exemplified German engineering, offering a sophisticated design, driver engagement, and exceptional build quality. It was renowned for its performance-oriented M30B28 inline 6-cylinder engine, delivering approximately 182 horsepower and 169 lb-ft of torque, coupled with either a Getrag 4-speed manual or a ZF 3HP22 3-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle's robust construction, advanced (for its era) Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection, and comfortable, driver-focused interior made it a benchmark in its class, competing with vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz W123 and Audi 5000.
