Rheingold useful documents

[aboulfad]

I thought to share my dropbox folder that contains a miscellaneous list of technical docs and repair/installation extracted from Rheingold and that I've previously and separately uploaded to different threads.

If someone needs some other doc, let me know and i'll do my best to upload. BTW, if you see a VIN K333333, its not my VIN ! but a random one I use to search and post docs for a 2015 F82.

Docs that start with AZD are torque tightening docs.

I don't think one exists for our car series I had the e46 Bentley service manual but couldn't find one for the F8x platform. I think they only published the F3x series.

Rheingold amongst many things is an amazing database of relevant documentation, procedures and technical information that keeps getting updated, so a bit more useful than a book that may become out of date. I am trying to figure out if there's a quick way to extract most of the FUB/REP/AZD docs.

is Rheingold from BMW or is it similar to Alldata or Mitchell?

It's the official diagnostic tool used by BMW.

UPDATE: documents related to the charge air system. Search on the linked Dropbox page in post #1 for keywords "charge" or "intercooler" or "cooling"

Longshot, but is there anything in there related to interior rattles or banging noises in the dashboard or center console?

Can you add the AZD (torque specs) for the "Removal and replacement of exhaust system"? Thanks much for any help, this continues to be a great resource!!

Ok I've just added two AZD docs, just search for most recent or with keywords "exhaust". If you are a DIYer, I advise that you get ISTA/D.

+1.

ISTAD is essentially for a DIYer.

Ok look for AZD 33 32. BTW, a repair document contains many hyperlinked references and as mentioned, best way is to use ISTA.

Copy, I tried installing the ISTA in the past and could never get it to work. Probably user error. Thanks!!

Can anyone advise on how to clear a CEL? I ran the scan for faults and nothing came up. The CEL was due to downpipes but the stock downpipes are back on and the light is still on.
