Is there anything like this for 3 series? Been looking on the forums, but no luck. I need a service/workshop manual for e46 320d '05 model.

Cheers

Here's another site for E34s, not bad! :thumbs:

E60 Fuse inlay card is in the boot lid, stuck on (by velcro) to the carpet. To access it, open tool kit compartment

---

- Note:- Fuse placements vary from model to model and year to year
Tyco relay adjacent to boot fuse panel controls the Starter motor switching. A faulty relay will cause a current drain. The car cannot start without this relay

I am looking for photos on a e39 manual conversion. If any one knows of a link..
I read that a fella did it on here but I lost the link and looking to know how to wire it up, the rest is easy
