I hate to be a downer. Get the Bentley manual It has a ton of good information in it, then ignore most of the engine information. They were very much designed with the 5 chain engine in mind, Your motor is a 3 chain model. the AOS bolts to the top of cylinder 3. There are no spark plug tubes. instead there is a seal under the valve cover, and a o-ring under the cam follower carrier. Not covered in the Bentley. They use a valve to control a clutch on the intake cam that varies cam timing. First real vario cam. Previous models use and electric solenoid, and change the position of the chain around the cams to change the position of the intake cam. There are some other differences. Bottom line if you plane to work in the motor compartment get a shop manual for a 2005 - 2008. Do not buy a shop manual for a 1999 - 2004. this also will not show the engine assembly for your car.
