Question Where can I get an E24 repair manual?

I'm looking for a repair manual for my 635csi, please let me know if you have one for sale or know where I can buy one, new or used.

cheers

Rene

There are some CD ones on ebay (careful though - get the copies of the original BMW one, not the generic ones). If you're looking for paper, good luck. They come up on ebay once in a while, but usually go for big coin.

You can use Bentley E28 Service Manual for mechanical and download Electrical Troubleshooting Manual

Edit: The well known service manual publishers (ie Bentley) never made a service manual for the e24. The e28 manual is a suitable substitute however because, like the 5 and 6 series now, the two cars share similar systems such as engines, drive train, and suspension. Available here:

The dealer can probably sell you the official service manual for a couple hundred dollars as well.
