I own the E90 manual. It's incredibly accurate for everything except body panels. Engine and suspension and suspension are pretty identical.

Thread from the dead...

If the E90 manual is so similar, it wouldn't be too hard to put out one for the 1er. I'm sure they'd make a pretty mint from us peeps here

I inquired a couple of months ago... They have no plans for a 1er service manual.

just bought the e90 manual. What is everyone's experience with using the e90 manual on the e82? Are they really that similar?

I went ahead and sent a message requesting they publish an E82 manual. Every vote counts, right?

Brought it back up

Hey guys, FWIW, I just submitted feedback to Bentley again stating the stats on Bimmerpost users. For example, there are over 30k views on this thread alone. Even if they did a limited run there are enough enthusiasts out there who would buy these manuals.
