SOURCE: HOW COULD I READ CHECK ENGINE CODE ON A 1986 BMW 325E???
You can't use a tool to pull codes from an '87 BMW 325(e). You have the 2.7 liter and your DME, or computer is a Motronic. If you had a 325i, then a tool could read the codes because the computer was upgraded that year to a Motronic 1.1 system with a round plug in under the screw cap on the driver's side under the hood. The only tool you can buy is the one for resetting the service interval light and resetting the oil change light. To answer your question about going about finding your driveability problem would be to get a BMW Bentley Manual. This manual shows you how to use a standard voltmeter to check everything from your computer plug in. Your computer is located above the glovebox.
Good Luck,

To get the one's on the wheels off you have to take the wheels off and pop them off the the back. The one on the hood has two little plastic things you have to pry off. The one on the trunk are similar, but they are glued (at east mine were.) If you have the new ones already I would suggest getting a flat head screw driver and prying them off.

You can get hte codes from this BMW by turning the ignition key to the run position and then press the accelerator pedal to the floor 5 times, it will enter the diagnostic mode, count the flashes just like obd 1. Hope this helps, let me know
