Owner's Manual for E90 M3 WITHOUT Nav/iDrive?

[FrenchBoy]

I am planning to order an '09 E90 without Nav or Technology package, but with EDC. Don't care for the iDrive much.

Does anyone have the Owner's Manual as a PDF file for the non-Nav E90?

Thanks,

I believe only the E92 (coupe) manual has been posted on the Internet. And I'm pretty sure that the manual for the non-iDrive car is the same as the one's that have iDrive. They just treat it as an option in the manual.

I believe you are referring to this thread

It does not seem to have any info about a non-iDrive car.

hi,
You're going to want to check this out to get an idea of everything new coming in the E90 M3 Manual for drive. There is a ton of info on the diesel products coming as well, so if you're in the market for a diesel 3er you'll want to check this out for sure and if you're wondering what BMW is doing with the new iDrive there is tons of info as well!

BMW has it online.

My '08 E93 manual is iDrive-free. Not sure if this is still true for '09 though.

The iDrive cars have all the same buttons and controls as non-iDrive cars, depending upon the other equipped options. The main difference in an iDrive car is that you have at least two ways of controlling those functions (with the buttons or with the iDrive).

However, the same manual describes how those non-iDrive functions work.

The BMW M3 is a high-performance version of the BMW 3 Series compact car, developed by BMW's branch BMW M. M3 models have been derived from the E30, E36, E46 and E90/E92/E93 3-series, and sold with coupé, sedan and convertible body styles.

Hi everyone. I am really enjoying my '08 335xi but it came only with owners manual in German and I need one in English AND non-iDrive. My dealer is telling me the only manual available for the car is the iDrive version ...
