E93 Owner's Manual - pdf File Available?

I'm hoping to do some 'studying' in advance of my E93 arriving later this month. Has anyone found the E93 owner's manual anywhere????

I'd like one AND the other books too. I'd like to know how to set up the Logic 7 sound system. I'll have my car in a week.

I can't wait to get out my camera and shoot my car if I actually had it. As of tonight, it was not released to a car carrier. I leave town Wednesday. Getting the car is going to have to wait until I get back (a week from today).

Thanks on the congrats....

The BMW site is missing E92 and E93 manuals! I can't believe it. I was studying an E90 book just to learn some basics. They certainly don't have anything about the radios.

Radio is covered in a separate audio system manual.

All you need to do is go to the owner's circle and send an email to bmw requesting the pdf file. That's all it takes. It will be sent within a day or so...at least that's how I got mine.

I got a new e92 from the PDC last month and would really like a PDF of the manual (so I could do word-searches). What email address did you use? All I could find was the Request a Brochure webpage. I don't want the brochure, I want the manuals! <grin>

I thought you could download it from the owners site but I don't seem to find it any more, they offer instructional videos now.

Bummer, glad I downloaded mine before they changed their site.

I read somewhere that they stopped making the PDFs available from www.bmwusa.com sometime about when they updated the site, spring 2008.

I downloaded the 2007 version of the e92 manual from here:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29803
available:
2007 E90 Manual (including new 335i)
2007 E92 Coupe Manual (no i-drive)
2007 E92 Coupe Manual (with i-drive)

But hadn't seen a 2008, and I have seen several differences between it and my 05/2008 e92.

Did you get a later version?

I'm not talking about a brochure but rather the complete owner's manual for 2008. In the owner's section find and then click on the 'contact us' link. That's their email address. Tell them you'd apprciate the pdf file of the owner's manual. They will attach it to their reply to you.

Go to 'owners'. Click at bottom on 'contact us'. This takes you to a new page. Look to the right for BMWUSA.com. There will you find a link for 'contact bmwusa representative'. Click on that and it takes you to a page where you fill out your information and your request.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll post here the results. (I asked for not only the basic Owners Manual, but also the Pro-Radio and mobile phone manuals)

This will help you with some stuff on the e93, but not all. Sorry.

I put in a request 3 days ago, but wasn't sure it "took" as I think my Firefox browser ate the message. I just re-submitted it using IE and it looked like BMWusa took it this time.

I'm just sorry they stopped making the PDFs available on their main site. You'd think they'ed distribute them as much as they could. A whole lot cheaper than the dead-tree versions they'd otherwise have to hand out.

BMWUSA, LLC is no longer sending out or making Owner's Manual in PDF version. Please confirmed if this is corrected? That was a message I got over the phone with one of their rep.

Anyone lucky to received the Owner's Manual in PDF version of the E92, 2008 328i Coupe in the last several months. Would you mind sharing it? or PM to me one please? Thanks in advance. SC

It's been 5 days and I'd not even received a reply from BMWusa, so I think that's a lost cause.

StoneCold: If you get one, and it applies to a '08-335i, please let me know. And I'll do the same.
