They don't exist, the nearest you will get is an E36 manual and they are about as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

There is this book that was produced for the USA market. Published by Bentleys
Got lots in it, but you have to translate from American into English =)) ie. their Rotor Is our Brake disc

Being new to the Z3, I do find it useful, but you need to be careful to select the parts applicable to your individual car as it covers the whole range.

Expensive though !! Mine was £60.00.

There was 2 versions of the e36 Haynes manuals by the looks of things there is the hardback one like this

And there is also a paperback one ( which I got with Lynne's zed ) which also covers a fair bit for the zed 3 ( each section lists the repair for the e36 and then any difference related to the zed 3 if you can find a cheap one might be of some help

You are also better off looking online at Pelican Parts and the great How Too sections as well as Realoem for your parts when you put in the VIN number. The big Zed Bible is great for reference but most jobs can be done with a little help with people on this forum.

Enjoy the fun you can have with a Z3. They are easy to work on.
