Probably great for most 3 series, sucks for M3 though, 2008-06-28
Haynes manuals are generally great, and this is no exception...if you don't own a car with an S54 engine (M3, M roadster, etc,). It has absolutely no info on these cars. Since the M3 shares some systems with the other 3 series cars, you can apply some of the info found in this manual to your M car, but if your looking for specifics or anything pertaining to the engine, its accesories, or other M specific parts, this is not the manual for you.

Not for Z4 owners, 2008-04-29
Although the Z4 and the 3 series share the same engine, this book is not helpful for Z4 owners. All pictures are of the 3 series equipment. Pics are all black and white and not very sharp. A pleasant surprise at the back of the manual is the wiring diagrams for the Z4. Probably a decent manual for 3 series BMWs. As a Z4 owner, I would not have purchased this manual if I had an opportunity to view it first.

Absolutely fine manual for the shade tree mechanic., 2008-03-16
I don't seem to have any problem with the print or the photographs in my copy - but then again I usually cover most of them with greasy fingerprints pretty quickly anyway.

This is a Haynes manual - they're good. They're far better than the Chilton's versions, which tend to cover every model made during a 10 year period in one book... which leads to vague descriptions and lots of caveats. This book is fairly thorough and covers all the jobs any typical home mechanic is going to mess with.

So far I've overhauled my entire braking system and front suspension components; and it hasn't steered me wrong yet.

If you're more serious than this manual, then you'll need the (much more expensive) Bentley book or a factory manual (which for European cars are frequently written by Bentley - at least I believe VWs were last I checked).

Faded Photos and print., 2007-10-27
I would not buy this book again.

The printing and photos are faded and when combined with small print,
this makes for a horrible automotive manual.

However it is possible to read this book in full bright day light.

Great value, 2007-08-10
The BEST E46 manual, dollar-for-dollar. The huge Bentley manual is excellent, but costs about 5 times as much. If your budget for manuals is limited, this is the one to buy.
