BMW Z4 TIS question

I have a factory service manual for my Jeep Wrangler, which has proved very valuable any time problems arise. :thumbsup:

I want to get one for the Z4. I've found some of the TIS Discs on eBay for about $8 - $10 dollars. Is this the same price the dealer would charge?
I dont want to risk buying one and it not working or the disc being bad and having to deal with shipping back and forth. Or...does someone know of a reliable eBay seller for this item?

And finally...will it have part numbers for things like interior pieces etc.? I want to replace the small panel below the e-brake lever since its pretty scratched up.

Thanks in advanced! :D

I bought my first set of TIS disks from Ebay. They work just fine. The years they covered were up to 2005. I have now since have one up to 2008.

I also have the ETK (parts disk) but I don't use it. I use RealOEM.com. It is just as fast and the part numbers are more up to date...
 
Thanks for the tip on RealOEM.com! Found the part in about 2 minutes :D

I'll check some out on ebay today. Do they cover the maintenance schedules as well or is that another disc?
Heres one that I found. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-TIS-E85-M-Roadster-Z4-2-0i-2-2i-2-5i-Service-Manual_W0QQitemZ320380601772QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Manuals_Literature?hash=item4a982c05ac&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65%3A12|39%3A1|72%3A1205|240%3A1318

My original 2005 edition had four CD's.

The newer ones are a DVD.

That DVD on ebay looks good. Its a 2006 and has the E86, Z4M..

Good info for less than $20.00

Hell, the cheap, unusable, 3 series/Z4 Haynes manual is $20.00.

It will take you a little bit of time to figure out how the program works and navigate it properly.

If you also want the BMW electrical DVD, the latest version (that I know of) is WDS V12.

I have both.
