best repair manuals?

[norma]

I'm looking for the best step-by-step repair manual or cd for my 73 2002. The most comprehensive. I've got Haynes which is good but I need something better, that explains everything. Is there a preference? And where do I find it? Thanks.

LOOK on eBay, or order the CD's from any BMW dealer

CAUTION ! the CD's run on 'older' operating systems,

read on this message board back about a week or more for a thread about

difficulty running the CD's, The CD parts catalog is required also

for intellegent 02 preservation. The white 2-volume binder Parts

Catalogue is now out of print from BMW - so look on eBay for

that. The printed binder parts catalogue is much friendlier than

the CD version.

Factory repair manual(blue binder) was printed in either 1, or

2-volume editions. Expect to pay $100 to ...$300, for a 2-volume

in clean condition - and eBay is your only source - or a neighbor

who walks around the neighborhood, and see's you cleaning your car,

and they just offer to 'donate' their 30-year old copy that they have

no use for.

Happy hunting
