6-Series Maintenance Manual Now Available!!!
Check out this link!!!
http://www.bentleypublishers.com/product.htm?code=be24 Description: BMW 628CSi - M6: 1975-1989 Repair Manual on CD-ROM This bilingual (German/English) BMW service manual on CD-ROM contains the repair information provided by BMW to their factory-trained technicians, making it an invaluable resource for the BMW 628CSi - M6 owner. It provides clear and complete step-by-step procedures to help you understand, care for, and repair your BMW 628CSi - M6. Wiring diagrams and original German language tech bulletins are also included in this BMW manual. Models included in this BMW repair manual: BMW 628CSi BMW 630CS BMW 630CSi BMW 633CSi BMW 635CSi BMW M6 Robert Bentley Publishing is a great company! No, I don't work for 'em, but I've trusted their books for a while. They've written the best VW repair manuals I've used... They actually author the VW dealer's repair manuals, if that gives you some idea of their reputation. They didn't write this one--it's from BMW (as told above). I ordered mine on Friday (July 29 2004), and as of today I don't have it in my hands yet--but when I do I'll give you my humble take on its' thoroughness and quality. Robert Bentley's website was actin' funky on Friday, so I had to order by phone. They've got a toll-free number 1-800-423-4595 ___Tklop

The manual is cool, but...
Hey all!
The manual is great, but I've encountered ONE little problem, which I thought I'd pass on: If your computer has a lot of RAM (mine has 1GB) this program will not run. Instead, you'll get a nifty little error message which reads: Run-Time Error: '2004': Out of memory. Grrrr... The program uses an older version of MicroSloth Visual Basic for Applications which seems to be prone to this problem. None of Billy G's patches did me any good at all. In order to get it to run, I had to open up the case and remove one of my two 512MB DIMMS. This seemed worth mentioning, since many newer computers come stock with 1GB or more... If you've got one of those smokin' Dell XPS machines, or some hopped up gaming box--for example, you may want to think twice! I'm still seeking an appropriate patch, fix etc. and if anyone has any ideas, feel free to reply! ___Tklop

FYI: When I mentioned the problems I had been having to the BMW Tradition folks -- who wrote this software -- they offered no solution to this problem either.  I would not expect any technical support from them.Also, Re- the manual, the troubleshooting information as well as many of the specifications are only available in German. This may prove to be a slight handicap for the non bilingual user (like myself). The pictures are good though, and while it's not the easiest product in the world to navigate, I've blundered my way through pretty well. The best use I have made of it is for removal and/or installation of components on my 633CSi. There is no simple IPB (illustrated parts breakdown) section --at least not that I've found yet... Let me know how it works out for you! I'm not dissapointed with my purchase, but would have preferred a more user-friendly product, with more English language support. Let me know what you think! __Tklop
