Any one know of a list like this on but for BMW (cars). I need to replace the front struts on the Wife's car. I have the Haynes paper book and an Electronic copy of the Bentley Repair Manual. The differences are interesting. The 'little' stuff is that, in the Bentley documentation it is noted that a number of the bolts should not be reused. I call that little because I normally go on the conservative side. (just get new bolts). However the Bentley procedure removes the strut with searing knuckle attached. The Haynes book leaves the searing knuckle attached to the suspension and just unbolts the bottom of the strut from it. If I had no book and just went for it looking at it and having don a few struts on other beasts that is how I would handle it. Any Ideas on where to look for an answer on this? BTW I have a spring compressor (KD I think) that should handle this but I have not totally checked that out yet. Will find another if necessary)
