There are a variety of posts on the internet describing the procedure but it can sometimes be tricky. You might have to go to the dealer. If you bought the key there or they know you they might do it for free.

SOURCE: bmw n42 oil pump

the m42 oil pump is located inside the timing chain cover and is an integral part of the casing so it is neccessary to remove the water pump + viscous fan etc to expose the pump front cover then remove 4 machine screws to examine the pump rotors underneath.

possibly a problem with the button on the end of the stalk.
sounds like your indicator stalk needs changed out.
I had a similar problem with the other side and my intermittent wipers. changed the stalk and it was all good.

I want to overall my 2002 bmw e46 n42 but its performance is still okay Which parts can i replace to maintain smooth running. Under what condition is the oil pump cleaned or replaced?

I always do a normal service, change oil, fuel and air filters. Drain your oil and replace it. The oil pump i clean during this service too after oil is drained always good to clean your sump of all fine particles and oil pump too. This just gives ur motor a refresh feel.

Unlock but hold the unlock button on your remote while pointing at the driver's side door. There is a sensor right there.
