Service Manual?

[DrivingPassion]

I do not have the resources to keep pouring time into this.
I am looking for a manual, PDF or physical so I can do what I want to do: work on the car, not fuz around with ISTA+ and the stupid VM.

Worst of all, they are not refunding me. Very unreasonable Company (Manual4You).Avoid this company at all costs. Behaving like bandits.

Please consider submitting a feedback to Bentley Publishing to make a service manual for our M3. I have submitted a request. I figured if more people request it, they may see a market for it.

You may be SOL if you want a paper or PDF manual. I doubt even Bentley will do anything because they would have done it by now. The factory procedures are all electronic now, in the form of ISTA. ISTA is not that difficult to use from a repair manual perspective. If you don't feel like the DIY ISTA install route, which admittedly can be a PITA to get it right, there are several places where you can get a "pre-packaged" one click ISTA install (and more) for a nominal fee.

Or, you can pay BMW a ridiculous fee to access the repair procedures online. But either way, it will still be in a ISTA style, electronic format.
