Hi. I need to buy a service manual for a 2002 BMW X5. I have the BMW TIS but it does not have wiring diagrams. I came across

http://www.emanualonline.com/

The $16.95 sounds like a bargain compared to the Bentley manual which is $100 plus. Does anyone have any experience with emanualonline?

The Bentley BMW manual has mis-information & generalizes not unlike a Chilton or Haynes and there must be better manuals for a bimmer than Bentley out there. Does Helms publish a BMW manual?

Just checked Helm and they are mainly GM, Ford, Honda and Toyota. Only euro manufacturer listed is Jaguar, and that probably because Ford owned Jaguar.

I still have a Bentley manual for VW Type 1 which I bought in the seventies and it is a good manual. Wiring diagram is especially good and in full colour.

Perhaps the quality of Bentley manuals have gone down over the years.
