Actually, BMW has discontinued the TIS and ETK CD's. While they maybe
currently available from a few places that I know of, they are/will not be
available pretty soon.
BMW in the recent past sold no documentation to the public. A few years
ago they contracted with Central Letter Shop to distribute some of their
documentation. That has all come to an end, as they have gone to on-line
system where you pay for daily access to the TIS. I do not believe BMW is
going to ever offer access to their ETK (parts system) to anyone!

Luckily, I have an ETK and TIS for my current BMW's, but will not have them
for any future ones that we may buy.
