There are certainly some there that I haven't got and some (like the wheel recall) which I have in a different form (from a different territory). Can I suggest we find some way to exchange information. The simplest way might be to zip all of the files (mine are in a directory structure using the BMW designations like your index). We could also share files on Google drive or Dropbox... or even swap DVDs. That way we'll both have all of the data and can arrange it to suit ourselves.

I thought I'd already shared them with you Rob but happy to do so again. If you or anyone else that wants them, send me a PM I'll respond with a link to my dropbox public share which should enable them to be downloaded. Alternatively if there is any way the forum can host them I'd be happy to do that also.

I haven't got three of the four you posted above as far as I can tell...

If you want to let me have your dropbox share, as well as nicking everything you've got, I'll dump everything I've got into it...

PDF's are not a permitted file type probably because they can contain malicious code. You would have to take an image of the PDF and post that. The bulletins posted above at the start of the thread are images but all my 300 bulletins are PDF's which is why it would be a nightmare to post them all. It's a pity the forum couldn't host them as a reference.
