Workshop manual

Post by XDRIVER86 » Fri Apr 29, 2016 8:55 pm

Just wondering if anyone has got or uses a copy of the BMW workshop repair manual for the x5? I was going to purchase one of eBay for £10 On a stick but don't know if it's worth it. Im going to be doing a few jobs like the brake lines but can't find much info as people seem to just take it to Bmw or other garage. Cheers

The only one of any value is the sort you have already found.  Hard copies appear to only be the Bentley Manuals and those are US only and no diesels covered  >:(
