Thank you for those links. The first one though does not seem complete. Am I missing something. I'm talking about this link:
http://www.bmwtechinfo.com/etm/data/toc_cd2.pdf

Looks like just a how to navigate PDF

that works for me, just double click on the left index a model and more will pop up

I only get the cover page, a "how to navigate" page and a "license agreement" page when I use this link. I've saved it to my PC and it's only 500kb in size. I've tried Chrome and Firefox. I dono

It's not urgent that I get that information right now. I'm just pointing out my issue. Hopefully everyone else is fine with it, and it's only me.

On the left of the cover page I see
License Agreement
How to Navigate
BMW 3 series
E30
E36
E36/5 Compact
E36/7 Z3
BMW 8 Series
E31

I think it's just me. In Firefox I get an error message saying "This PDF Document may not be displaying correctly". So I click "Open with different viewer" and I see that index you describe now on the left side. It did not show when I downloaded it, and it did not tell me nothing in Chrome. Sorry for the confusion. It's a plug-in problem on my part. Thanks Shogun.

Works perfect in the browser that I don't particularly like, IE! Go Figure. lol
