Petrol BMW engines have Bosch-Motronic control system. It is the combined electronic system of ignition and injection designated as Digitale Motor-Elektronic (DME). Management of systems of ignition and injection is carried out by the general control unit. In the present Chapter the system of injection is considered.

The DME system steadily works for a long time and does not demand service. Need under repair arises extremely seldom.
